Salary 14000 PLN gross in Krakow, Poland VS 50k EUR per year in Western Europe?

Hi,

I was made an offer of salary 14000 pln gross per month in Krakow. The employer told me that is a good salary in Krakow. How does that compare with making 50k EUR per year in Western Europe?

FINN007 On 14000 a month in Poland you will live like a king (Just do not tell ANYONE) how much you earn" lie if you have to.

I can't believe people are wondering if they would be able to 'survive' on amounts like this. Someone else posted something similar to this a while ago. It's an insult. The average salary in Poland is what? 2000, perhaps 2500 per month, and people still manage to live. 14 000 is more than enough. You should give some of it to charity.

He might give some to charity it would be nice if he chose to , The good thing is that a good proportion of his salary will be spent in Poland, which will be a benefit to every

I welcome you to Poland FINN007.

FINN007 are you a programmer? Have I right? 14 000 PLN is very good salary in Poland, but it is maximum for IT specialists in Poland.

That's for sure the maximum for IT Senior devs.

You get almost 2500 EUR net a month, in Poland!

The comparison with that amount in West Europe is anyway hard, depends on the country and the city.
If you can get them (are almost 3000 EUR net a month) in Andalusia or another spot that is cheap and with good weather and party-like environment, why not.

Hi,

I was made an offer of salary 14000 PLN NETT (not gross) per month in Gdansk. Could you guys help me figure out how much would I be able to save considering the fact I have a family of 3 including me. (My kid would be going to pre-school soon)

Come on, there have been so many threads and posts about that on the PF that if you cannot find and read them, you're certainly not worth a 14000 net income per month at all!

@Ziemowit
I already went through some of the posts but those were related to Warsaw, Poznan, Krakow etc and I am really not sure where Gdansk stand compared to these cities and that's the only reason I needed some information on this.

There is not a tremendous amount of variation in cost of living in the largest cities in Poland.
