***** sensitive topic******🤪🤪

As a student and soon at the end of my studies, I wanted to be so cheeky (mostly seen in Germany) and ask if you people here are so open and would tell me/us what you do for a living and what your annual salary is?


It's just about seeing how the conditions are different/the same in every industry. Also because I'm a fan of talking about money and want to know if I should change my direction right away lol.


I hope to earn around €54,000 starting salary even with my Master's in Civil Engineering. But at the moment I'm just a student assistant at the university with a €450 a month job.



Thank you <3

I was in technical sales and had a great salary of around €50,000 net. Now I'm self-employed and earn less, but I now have more freedom, can plan and implement things myself, am not accountable to anyone and don't have to crawl up anyone's a.... grovel. Simply more freedom. I've learned that the money that ends up in your account on time doesn't make you happy. Imagine working hard at a company and then it simply closes (I've seen this happen to many of my friends). You have to ask yourself what is more important to you. Earning a lot of money or not so much...

@alexschober_ uh ok nice! Would be interesting to compare with other areas to see if you can achieve a higher savings rate yourself. Thank you :)

@alexschober_ Are you a temporary soldier? No professional soldier earns only 15k net a year, at least not in Germany

@Der_Dividenden_Monteur achso 🤔@alexschober_ may I ask what rank group you are in compared to German ranks? In Germany we have enlisted men, non-commissioned officers, non-commissioned officers with Portepee and officers. In Germany you would only earn 15k net as an enlisted man and they can't become professional soldiers.

@alexschober_ If you've got a high school diploma and you're up to d... join the army and become a midshipman. BS with 15k net... and then deploy and get your ass shot off.

@hendrik_lmr i am a team compared to germany. in austria you are a piad (person in training service) as soon as you have completed your basic military service and have signed up. to advance in rank or salary you have to take courses. my next one is in spring. there are also a lot of different contracts depending on your years of service

60,000 gross as a service technician in mechanical engineering. But it can be scaled up by another 20-25, depending on how much I travel and work overtime. More importantly, however, would be the approximate place of residence, if I earn 60K in my sleepy middle Hesse, I can live very well with it. If I get 80k at Porsche, but have to live in the Stuttgart metropolitan area, well.

I actually don't know for this year because the monthly salary has changed a few times due to experience level increases and corona bonuses, but if I assume just the basic salary for next year, that would be just under 38k net. I am a soldier

@AlexF82 Hi Alex, may I ask how you got into the industry from the WiWi field?
profile image
@MHe I've never been anywhere else, so maybe that explains it best.😄 In my Bachelor's degree, I did a dual degree at an automotive supplier, where I worked as a technical project manager. Then I did an MBA because I realized that I enjoyed the commercial and organizational aspects more than the technical ones. After working abroad, I moved from a medium-sized company to a large corporation. LG ✌🏼

@doddelwa only 3 years out of residency? In which federal state? I know a lot of dentists and the median gross amount is around €60,000 😃 and that's also 3 years since my residency.
profile image
@keinStress 1 year out of residency. So 3rd year in total. Within the residency from 2750€ to 4500€ gross, now in the third year 25% commission on fee-based turnover (currently approx. 600k/year). I am employed in a practice in Baden-Württemberg. Anyone who earns 60k gross as an employee dentist after 5 years can only receive a fixed salary, which is actually quite unusual and I don't know this from my circle of acquaintances. Fixed salary + revenue share is actually the standard model and brings between 80-200k, depending on revenue. Much more is difficult.

@doddelwa that's really strong 💪 But 50k turnover per month is also quite a lot 😁 What is your specialization? ORTHODONTICS? Must be something that generates real turnover. I'm asking because my wife is also a dentist. I only know one of her colleagues who earns around 6-8k gross per month, also with a 25% share of turnover. The others tend to earn around 60k a year, which is really sobering when you consider the work you have to do (no home office, hardly any downtime possible, etc.).

@Kimbi haja cool! I wouldn't have thought (I've never really heard any details/ratios about the job...). Do you think you have 4-5 years of experience? Or more ? great salary ahaha
@domibangbang Exactly, I studied and trained as a journalist. I work for radio and television - they generally pay better than print. And full-time professional experience is now 4 years

@DividendCop Thank you ✌🏼ich I'm not quite sure what to choose yet, but I think the first internship will help me. May I ask in which area you have a part-time job? It's quite difficult to get something approved, as I understand it.

@Jack1909 Yes, it was similar for me at the beginning, you have to go to the GE directorate at the start anyway, so patrol duty before you do anything else. I also play soccer in the 5th league.
