Not everyone is happy to move around in the world just to earn more money. I can’t imagine that a lot of people from Europe would just move to other countries or even continents, just to make more money. So, I don’t expect a “brain drain” to happen anytime soon.
That being said, I’m sure the salaries in Europe aren’t so great, but that goes for many things and other sectors definitely have it worse than tech workers (e.g. healthcare workers).
And it sounds like you could try working for smaller companies that are more agile and don’t have such annoying management issues! (At least in Germany they also tend to pay better or equally well as big corporations.)
- prakhar897 4y agoThe Europeans might not move but they can starting working remotely. Similarly, Chinese and Indians will start working remote US positions rather than moving to Europe.
- rcarmo 4y agoI work remotely from Europe, with a 4-hour overlap with my US colleagues and other folks in India, APAC, etc. I'm not alone, but it is a very rare kind of role, and some local positions pay more--but they are typically in heavily political/lobbied/traditional (i.e., old-fashioned and stodgy) industries.

- bradleyjg 4y agoThe entire world is filled with the descendants of people that moved around for more money (resources).
- smeagull 4y agoWho needs to move? I work for companies on the East coast of America, and the Philippines, and I live in NZ.
- sys_64738 4y agoMaybe you specifically might not but plenty of us are happy to move to high paying jobs in the USA. Greatest country on Earth.
