Hope you can enlighten me!
Thanks.

I'm 8yrs into Archi, 2 master degrees expat on local pay (6k+bonus) here. Looking to go to a specialist subcon, because we are paid terrible for the hours expected and complexity and skill needed in architecture. My advice is to look where you can move parallel to your current position outside the Archi industry...
Getting into a developer office is not all roses as well. Long hours, internal politics, project based, dependency on RE market boom/bust cycle and stress are still present. Just better pay on developer side...
