Are employees in the Netherlands satisfied with their monthly incomes? That seems to somewhat depend on their level of education. Of the respondents with a research university degree taking part in this 2019 survey, nearly 60 percent stated to be satisfied with their salary. By comparison, among degree holders with vocational training, this was less than 35 percent.
