According to Indeed, mechanical engineers earn an average of $94,933 per year in the United States. Of course, the salary can be higher or lower depending on the city and company where you work, and all the other benefits you have access to can vary, too.
Meanwhile, American software engineers earn an average salary of $105,333 per year. Some software engineers who are based in San Francisco or New York City can expect to earn almost 1.5 this average rate.
