It’s a class thing in the UK. I recommend anyone who is any good to jump on a plane to the Bay Area. Same goes for Australia. They refuse to pay competitively and then wonder why they can’t find good talent.

Seems like an opportunity? Start your own firm, pay a proper salary to good engineers, attract the best local talent in droves and become massively competitive.

Here in the Netherlands they will pay competitively... for management positions. Even middle management gets compensated very well. Engineers not so much.

I am also a dev in The Netherlands, while a lot of data is available for devs in the US I can't find something similar for NL. What would you consider a competitive pay for devs in NL? (Assuming we are talking about the Amsterdam area for the junior, medior resp. senior levels)?

Agreed, contracting is the way to go if you want decent money.

I think it is the same with Singapore too.

No wonder good people aspire to go to the US.
