Is salary in Japan really low compare to US? (in general or in tech/ecommerce/digital marketing)

Mid experienced position (for late 20s – early 30s) in ecommerce/digital marketing, 6-7M yen is already considered high here (50k USD) and on top of that they would always want you to be bilingual, close to native Japanese

Whereas when you work for US, 85k is just normal. And can go up to 6 digits if you have crm certifications.

Am I right?

If your idea is more general rather than focus on ecommerce, feel free to share.

would be also curious to know if there are people here that work for US company full
time or as a freelancer then live here

  1. The general rule is US salary is the best in the world as long as you are young, without children and without any health issue.

    The moment your health fail you in USA, that’s where everything begins to fail you too.

    Housing can also be a problem depending on where you live, while in japan that’s still okay.
