Memes aside, can anyone explain why the translation of salaries from the EU to the US is constant at about a factor of 2, while the price of living is roughly constant (factor of 1.6 says one source I found), although the direct money conversion from Euro to Dollar fluctuates as fuck?
A very good stating salary with a PhD in STEM would be, as I understand it,
Euros
65k (5.5k per month, or 4.6k per month if you have 14 salaries)
Dollars
130k (11k per month)
(does that sound about right?)
but whether you should start working here or there seems to fluctuate as fuck.
Someone understand this?
with
2 / 1.6 = 1.25
for a € -> $ conversion rate to be balanced

anyone with below 3.5 GPA in engineering shouldn't be hired in anything engineering related.

why? the vast majority of engineering duties have nothing to do with what you learned in undergrad.
