so many engineers , IT related people.

where are those account lawyer ???
*



Accounts is here, r u calling me?

I think Accounts & legal field not as lucky as IT & engineer. Cause in these field base on your business experience, so the more experience you are, the more valuable you are. Not as IT & engineer which mostly depend on their technical knowledge & application which they learn in Uni.

So as starting salary for Accounts & Legal are quite low, the salary only start to pick up after 5-10 years experience. & the higher professional qualification the higher salary you can demand.

Software engineer is just a nicer name for programmer. When ppl hear that you are a programmer, automatically the stereotype comes in their mind that programmer is generally has a lower status than the title of software engineer. They are just the same.
So it's no wonder that software engineer is lower paid than others since what they do is basically similar to what programmers do - coding.
