tl;dr: Please fill in the salary survey.
After lengthy discussions in the Slack group, I decided to run Birmingham’s first technologists’ salary survey and I want to know your salary and how happy you are with it.
It’s well known that Birmingham is a cheaper city to live in than London and that salaries are lower as a result, but it’s long been suspected that the disparity between Birmingham and other tech hubs are unusually large. To do away with speculation, it’s time to collect some cold, hard data.
Please fill in the anonymous salary survey
The survey is carried out by me (Max Woolf max@woolf.io) in a personal capacity. My employer will have no more access to the data than anybody else. The survey has been designed with anonymity in mind and will ask for no personally identifiable information.
Please pass this on to others who it may be appropriate to. The more data we gather, the more useful it is.
The anonymous results will be released under a Creative Commons licence in CSV format along with an analytical blog post written by me.
