I am thinking about starting a software business in Lagos and have started to conduct research on salaries for various roles. Being a start-up the salaries are likely going to be low compared to established players that pay great salaries. To offset the initial comparatively low salaries I am considering a bonus scheme and/or share scheme to make up the initial shortfall so that I could still attract people.

As I am not Nigerian, don't live in Lagos, or fully appreciate the situation there on the ground I need to get somewhat of an idea of what I am working with before I proceed.

I would like to know what a decent salary range is for the following roles:

Business Development Manager, responsible for finding new business
Senior Developer, need to be able to communicate with the client showing business acumen not just highly technical
Developer, same as above but would have less experience

Please can I have some kind of idea what a decent salary would be for these roles considering it is a start up, and that said developers would be rewarded uniquely and generously as the companies grows, this is compared to the staff that would join later, assuming the business is successful, that is?

Hi All,

I am a C# developer in the UK and I would say that the learning curve for VB.Net is only slightly easier compared to C#. You have to remember that both languages are essentially the same underneath, inasmuch as they both sit on the CLR. So there are some intrinsic complexities shared between them (as well as other .Net compliant languages).

So Easier, only slightly by VB.Net

As for usefulness, there is a lot of 'religious' attitude about which language is better that that language etc, etc.

The truth is, it really depends upon what you are doing with the language, because you should be smart and use the language for the strengths it possesses and adds to the potential of your project. C# has few features that VB.Net does not, but that may well be equally true of the inverse, but I cannot be sure. The long and short of it is, they are both useful and their comparable usefulness is most likely negligible, although I would edge toward C#.

In the UK, you will find 9 jobs out of 10 that require C#. It is a fact that there are simply more jobs requiring C# and this trend is global not just here in the UK, Nigeria will go the same way I promise you (unless a better language supersedes it). If you look at the job boards here in the UK (again indicative of the global market) C# contract jobs are very wide spread and usually pay in excess of £350 per day, approximately N100000 per day. In fact, using one of the popular job boards that I frequent, the daily rate for only 1 found VB.net job offered £300-£350 per day. If I search for a C# job then I have 8 jobs in the result list with £600 per day as the highest value and £320 as the lowest. I know this is not pure science but it is indicative. This will of course be different in Nigeria as your economy is on a different level and I observe that IT is not valued as high as it is in the West, for the time being.

I say again, without doubt, if you want to earn serious money C# will provide you with more opportunity, VB.Net will provide opportunity too but far fewer.

Finally, my own little thought, if I may; until IT is truly valued in Nigeria by the project sponsors, the pay scale will be small. The dot com boom experienced in the West is starting in Nigeria (the economic centre of Africa don't forget) be in the right place at the right time. More pay = more innovation, more innovation = more spotlight on Nigeria, this will equal more jobs, more competition, and will increase pay to the developers who will be in high demand.
