Hello all,
I have an offer from the UK..I have arnd 2 years experience in J2EE...The offer is 26K pounds+bonus. The place is somewhere in west sussex. I am not even sure whether its a good deal or not as I dont know the cost of living there. I'm from Germany.
With some tax calculator I found out that take home is arnd 1600Pounds. Is this a normal salary in the UK for a Masters graduate with 2 years experience? I did not deduct the Health insurance from the take home. I dont know how much it would be. Could anyone throw some light on that?(% of health insurance from the gross, employer contribution to the health insurance,etc)
thanks
Aravind
I am not sure about West Sussex but in London it should be around 32-35K, given that you have a good degree and quality
J2EE experience. But of course London is more expensive than West Sussex, especially housing prices.
