This is a striking result of a recent on-line survey through the continuous \u003Cem>WageIndicator \u003C\u002Fem>web survey (in Germany called \u003Cem>Lohnspiegel\u003C\u002Fem>), in which about 3,000 German MBA’s participated. While their monthly average salary stands at Euro 4,210, average earnings across industries are highest in banking (Euro 4,713). Other striking results in the \u003Cem>Lohnspiegel\u003C\u002Fem> survey are that experience also pays off (with salaries of those with over 20 years experience averaging Euro 5,283, as against Euro 3,254 for starters), and that female MBA’s with an average Euro 3,705 earn 18% less than their male colleagues (Euro 4,506). At the very start of their career, female MBA’s experience a gender pay gap of 14%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>German: http:\u002F\u002Fwww.lohnspiegel.de\u002Fmain\u002Fzusatzinformationen\u002Fdiplomkaufleute\u002Fdiplomkaufleute-2013-das-hoechste-gehalt-gibt-es-in-duesseldorf\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cem>\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cspan class=\"teaserText\">This article was published in the Collective Bargaining Newsletter.
