Hi, I am not nor have I ever worked in industry as I am a university student atm. I have heard in certain places that Java and PHP programmers get paid less than say C# or other programmers.
The correlation in my mind seems to be that the verbose languages pay less, this may not be the case but when you compare C# to Java, the former is definitely less verbose.
In any event, based on your observations do you get paid more according to the language that you program in? If so, based on your observations what languages seem to have a higher or lower general pay scale?
Update: I did find a comparison of different programmer types here, complete with pretty graphs. It is however no means a definitive answer but it does provide some clues.
