I know many developers who have come to London for better jobs, but not many who are leaving the UK altogether. Are you including London on your assessment?

- Nursie 9y agoA lot less so than the rest of the country. And there are pockets of competence elsewhere I'm sure. I don't know many people who have left the country for dev opportunities elsewhere either, and most I know eventually leave London for quality of life reasons. It's just my comment on the UK industry as I have experienced it in the south east and south of the country.
- richardknop 9y agoI think it's the same everywhere in Europe. Unless you are in a big metropolis with lots of financial power behind it, IT will be treated as a cost centre, salaries and quality will be sub par. The same in Germany, if you are not in Berlin/Munich, most jobs in IT will be really bad. Not sure about US but I'd assume best jobs are in SF/NY/Seattle and other places will have "shitty" jobs compared to that.
