      Yes, very. Engineers are very well paid. The starting salary is the 2nd or 3rd highest after doctors and dentists, but above lawyers.

      Software engineers are in demand in pretty much every area of life in every country so pay is very competitive. Having said that the public sector in the UK really needs great software engineers too and like other public sector organisations their pay isn’t as competitive as the private sector but there are other benefits and sometimes money isn’t everything!

      super happy! but i will always try to make it better 😉

      with each year of experience, most companies will review your wage and can move it either up or down depending on performance.

      Engineers are and i think always will be in high demand. It is a strong skillset that requires alot of work to maintain and for that, we are paid well.
