What is an average salary IT Project Manager in your country?
In Poland acc. to one the reports I have seen it is 17 000 PLN monthly, which should be 4 478 USD. This is of course with taxes, working for a company, not as a freelancer
The amount - 17 000 has significantly increased since last year (+10%)
but it is only one report (Hays) as a source... Saving Changes...
The problem with trying to use an average is that there are extremely broad views on the actual responsibilities of a PM. Some employers consider it mostly an administrative role, while others a very responsible leadership role. I did an online search and even the average ranged from $75k to 140, per year in the US. Each site listed a different value. That tells me that even the websites dedicated to those metrics aren't using the same datasets.

Thank you Keith, anyway even if the range is quite broad I see it is still a big potential for salary increase in Poland
You are right, some PM manage projects value of $100K other in $ 10B, are salary equal? I don't think so.
Industries are not easy to compare also.
Then there is the level of PM, different from an organization to the next.
Add to that cost of living in a country or a region.
Difficult to compare

You are right, there are many dependancies, I wanted to increase my awareness, especially looking if there are comparable cases to mine

The numbers can be skewed. Whereas having information such as what Kiron shared or from Glassdoor/Salary.com/etc., to Keith's point, it can be all over the map.
Also consider what you are worth. Background, industry, experience, market, geographic location, current salary, etc.

$100 k to $140k are quite common Project Manager salaries here in Melbourne and Sydney . You sometimes get the odd $80k/90k offers from small companies. $150k and Above are generally salary brackets suited to Senior Project Managers or Program Managers. These are generally long term contracts or Full time permanent roles.
On the other spectrum short term PM Contract (6-12 months) rates generally tend to be quite higher (approx $800 - $1200 a day ) because of the inherent hire and fire risk involved
Thank you Kiron. That is very interesting set if information. I was looking for sth like this.

In Canada we start with the number of years in your average life expectancy, subtract the number of years lost due to working in PM, and multiply by...well something.....
