How fair is it for the firms to pay different salaries for the same work in different countries? or lower salaries to employees from the developing nations even though they might be working directly with the client or leading projects?
Cost of living is definitely one factor but how would you counter when a Consultant from Mexico and a Consultant from US want to go on a vacation to UK?

Just daylight robbery. A full meal in Vietnam only costs 80k Dong. A hot dog should be way cheaper. How unfair

Why are you under the impression the work is the same? If it was, why would anyone hire a higher costing firm?

OP - How is it fair that firms pay different salaries for staff in different cities in the United States? How is fair that staff in NYC will earn more can not afford the same housing offered in LCOL cities?

Life is not fair and until the One World Order takes over and sets salary and the standard of living for every human being, your dream world will not occur.

It’s called labor arbitrage and taught as a completely acceptable strategy.

I am writing this message besides the staff group of EY GDS. Specifically Staff -1 at assurance level. I would request everyone to spare few minutes and read it -

Wanted to bring out that staff-1's are paid peanuts (3.33L CTC) please don't expect them to slog 12-13 hours. They don't have enough motivation or incentives to work that long. Seniors,AM's and Managers should be more kind and explain the work to them clearly rather than making last minute changes.

Specific question for fish based in the UK.
Could you let me know what your employer contributions to your company pension scheme are?
For instance, they contribute half of your contribution up to a maximum of 3%. Before any tax incentives etc.
Interested to see the variances, it seems to be substantial from what I've seen. If it changes with level/seniority, please make that clear as well so we can differentiate between companywide averages and individual circumstances / positioning.
