How much an engineer earns

The famous idea that engineers are needed in Argentina could be reversed if, future university students, knew the salaries paid in that profession.

A labor report reported how much an engineer should earn, either one with a low hierarchical position or a managerial position how much does a engineer make.

According to the report , prepared by Michael Page, an engineer who occupies the position of "Industrial Director" in the retail industry or mass consumption earns between $ 55 thousand and 70 thousand; Meanwhile, he receives between $ 55 thousand and 75 thousand, if he works in the agricultural or automotive industry. For their part, in the industrial or pharmaceutical segment, engineers receive between $ 60,000 and 80,000 gross per month.

Thus, according to the report, wages change when it comes to average charges , as is the case with a plant manager. In that position, salaries range between $ 40 thousand and 60 thousand, if it is the agricultural, automotive, industrial and retail industries. Different is the case of the pharmaceutical industry, where the salary range is between $ 45 thousand and 65 thousand.

On the other hand, when talking about a lower hierarchical position, such as being a production manager. The gross salaries of an engineer range from $ 30,000 to 45 for all market industries. However, when it comes to retail / mass consumption, salaries have a ceiling of $ 40,000. 

According to the report, "currently, to consider a job change, a Plant Manager contemplates salary offers that exceed 20 to 30 percent of his current compensation, in addition to the benefits." 

At the time of analyzing the hetareous ranges, the study indicates that “the age range is variable , but for the position of Industrial Directors the average maximum age is 55 years, as well as for the position of a Plant Manager, it is qualified from the age of 35 ”. In all cases, experience in the area is essential to occupy hierarchical positions.
