Work / Cost of living in Gdańsk, average salary for experienced software engineer in Poland [64]

Hello everyone,

I'm Jilani from India. I'm in the process of getting a job in Gdańsk as a software engineer. I will be joining as intermediate experienced software engineer. They would be offering me 6300 złoty per month before tax. I would like to know if this is the average salary for experienced software engineer and would it be enough to live in Gdańsk. I would like to negotiate the salary if I know the average salary.

I heard Gdańsk is one of the costly cities in Poland. Is it true?

How much would be to rent a 1 bed apartment in or around City center?

How much would be rough monthly cost of living for bills?

Is it hard to find Indian spices in Gdańsk?

Thank you All.

Thank you for your response.

Most of my concerns are cleared. But I would like to know what is the average pay for experienced IT professional. Anyone in IT field can put some light on it. so I can negotiate with the company.

And how cold it gets in winter at Gdask? I read somewhere it gets close to -35 degrees in winter. is it?

@Roger5 I would know in few days about the job offer. With Visa and all other formalities, it will take couple of months for sure.

I lived in UK for 3 years and I know how the winter feels. Long cold dark nights. In UK, I never seen the temperature going below -5. I'm just worried about the chilly weather in Poland.
