Hi everyone. I’m seeing here people talking about salaries like 180k, 200k for design roles. And I was wondering why they are so high. I live in Italy, I’ve a bachelor in visual design and my work is a kind of UX/UI design lead, but my salary reach 34k, also other companies are offering me so. Do you know why there is this huge difference?

I understand that this is because they are US salaries. In Europe they are much lower, but I think you can get something better; considering that you are Lead.

I am a Product Designer with 4 years of experience in UX oriented roles and I am earning 45K in Spain. I know seniors in Spain earning 65K.

Most people here work in big tech which pays better than smaller shops. The average UX designer is making less than 180-200k though.

Is it normal for a Product Owner to lay out specs for how a feature should work?

I thought that was my job as the ux designer to figure out the best way to solve a need. But I’m getting handed projects where the PO, and sometimes the senior designer has laid out exactly what should happen (components used, flow, etc) to design a feature. It’s really frustrating because I don’t know if I’m supposed to be speaking up on what I think or just do the UI work I’m asked to.

I know it’s competitive out there, but I also don’t know how I can either position myself better, seek positions that are more aligned with my expertise/experience, or work on improving certain areas.

Any advice on how to proceed?
