Oh, absolutely - I've worked in the US for some shorter stints (albeit through European companies), and there were things I loved and things I did not like.
I think if you're extremely ambitious, willing to shoot your shot, and work hard - the US is a great place to be. It rewards winners handsomely, and punishes losers viciously.
And this is something you see here in Europe. Those type of people do leave for the US, to make their fortune.
- codegeek 4y agoYes, you summed it up well. US is the definition of "go big or go home" especially for ambitious people. No country comes close. But if you are looking for "work life balance", Europe in general is better. Of course, every place has their pros and cons and not saying it is all awesome in Europe BUT the argument that US salaries are great cannot be made without comparing against what people give up here. And it's about lifestyle and choices people want to make.
