I think this is mostly a US thing. Why use yearly salary? Youโre not paid once a year, are you? Most likely once a month. Referencing monthly salary makes much more sense.
โIโm making 50kโ. Great, now I have to guess - dollars? Monthly? Yearly? If yearly then whatโs the monthly paycheck? Net? Gross?
For the US, but going by this thread itโs not limited to here.
Also, for what itโs worth, I would think if op was in a place that used monthly as the standard they wouldnโt have posted this complaint. If thatโs not the case Iโm confused by the point of this post?
