Its shocking to me how poorly people are compensated in the UK. There's no way a competitive market could exist there. Move to America if you dare... you can actually make something of your life.

- matthewmacleod 4y agoI can assure you that there very much is a competitive market for engineering talent in the UK. Salaries are generally lower than the US market, but a £60k salary still puts someone in the top 10% nationally in terms of income.

They just crush you and tell you its a "competitive market". What do I know. I'm literally making stuff up on a Saturday morning. At his experience level and skill set you can make triple in America.
- matthewmacleod 4y agoThis suggests that you're also probably overestimating the average income of tech workers in the US generally; people's views of this are often distorted by the headline figures from big tech companies, which aren't terribly representative of the diversity of roles across the country.
