I’m currently making the 120k EUR as a contractor which means I have no benefits. I have to pay health insurance, retirement plan, my work laptop, office space, etc. which is normally covered by your employer (at least here in Germany).
I think it’s comparable to 85k - 95k EUR/year if you are employed.
My total comp falls short of that range (adjusted for USD) and I still have to pay a hefty chunk for benefits too. Seems like the range you listed is around the median for the US. Not sure what it would be in the various EU countries, although I've always heard it's lower for many/most.
