$30/h for “highly skilled” devs… am I missing something?
Serious question: I keep seeing these posts asking for "Highly skilled web developers" and then it’s like $30/h. That just doesn’t add up to me. "Highly skilled" isn’t junior or even mid-level.
If I translate that to somewhere like Germany, after taxes that’s basically nothing. Feels closer to minimum wage than anything senior.
So what am I missing here?
Are experienced devs actually applying to these?
Is this mainly targeting lower-cost countries?
Or is "highly skilled" just a buzzword at this point?
Genuinely curious because it feels kinda off to me.
maybe I’m just in a bubble though 😅
