Yeah, but it doesn't mean they are brighter than British ones. It just means it's cheaper to hire a Greek or Italian developer (that and culture differences that British people would also need to deal with).
Saying this as a developer from Lithuania working in the UK.
- behindmyscreen 8y agoWhich is crazy.... in the US, a developer from Nebraska is just as expensive as one from California for any given company. The location of the company dictates the wages ( costs of living), not the source of the developer.... (unless we’re talking an H1B visa sham hire which isn’t the same as your situation)
- taysic 8y agoIf the developer from Nebraska plans to go back home after a period of time working in CA, they may be more likely to be content with lower salaries though. I wonder where these talented people in the EU plan to raise their kids/ retire.
