Salary Satisfaction Survey

Our Salary Satisfaction survey asked a simple question: how happy are you with your salary?

Here are the results of that survey split by age.

As you might expect, people up to around 40 are generally satisfied with their salary without thinking it is great - in other words are quite indifferent.

Those below the age of 22 in general are not very happy with their salary, reflecting how low starting salaries are these days.

After the mid 40's, there are more who are quite pleased on average with their salary; with no age group below 44 being 'quite pleased' with their salary!
