I wonder why I don't know any IT consulting giants in Italy or Spain.
I mean, climate is awesome and prices are lower than in Switzerland or UK where many of those are located, and quality of life is much better than in Poland or Ukraine where more of them are located. Where's your IT consulting? Maybe you ought to remove a few roadblocks for them? I'll be the first one to move to Italy and pay taxes there if provided with workplace and visa.
- allendoerfer 10y agoYou cannot compare Ukrainian prices to Italian. Italy's GDP per capita is almost 5 times the Ukrainian and the German is not even 1.5 times the Italian. Add in a language barrier and you have your answer. Also northern Italy is where all the industry sits and its productivity is comparable to north-western Europe, the south is dragging Italy down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capita https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)...
- guard-of-terra 10y agoThere's no reason why the language barrier will be there in Italy but not in Ukraine. Will definitely not affect offshore devs coming on your turf (like with Poland, which imports a lot of Ukrainian and Russian IT workforce). If London and Zurich can afford IT consultancies, why not Italy? 'cause I've not heard of those. WRT "south dragging Italy down", I actually don't think this is true. I think it's more like an excuse.
