I can promise you this doesn't hold across at least some of "Europe". Take where I work, London, for example. The stuff places like the BBC and GDS (Government Digital Service) are doing are pretty cool, but companies like Monzo, DeepMind and Revolut are the ones people talk about, plus the financial giants like JP Morgan and Bloomberg.
- np32 6y agoMonzo, Revolut vs Deepmind are not at all in the same ballpark of salary though. Deepmind pays 2x as much.
- dukeyukey 6y agoI've got an ex-colleague working at Revolut. 5 YoE, and he got hired for £140k. I'd be astounded if DeepMind were paying non-specialist, BSc developers £270k+. Monzo is behind, sure, but they still get a lot of attention, and don't pay badly. But my point is these companies are talked about way more than the "large century-old semi-government companies".
