In a very well known company... Mar 13, 2007

Hi,

I have a friend working in a very well known and big translation company there for a gross salary of 2000 euro/month(around 1600 net salary).

There are many banks in Luxembourg who also have in-house translator. In those cases the salary is around 2800 euros/month (gross).

Rgrds,
Davide

In Luxemburg salaries are the highest in Europe (if you don't take into account The City and the Frankfurter financial Viertel) and the difference between gross and net is about 13%.
Normally, salaries in Luxoland are about 1900-2000 net for an administrative position.
