How to read QA engineer salaries in Ethiopia

The median divides observed pay into two equal groups. The p10 and p90 percentiles show a market range that is more useful than a single average.

In the available references, monthly gross pay runs from 15,900 ETB at junior level to 83,700 ETB at senior level.

Net salary then depends on employee contributions, taxable income and individual circumstances. Employer cost adds employer contributions to gross salary.
