Which European countries are best for software engineers, where most people understand English, and they have an easy enough immigration system for long term work permits ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Netherlands is best for money I hear, especially for the tax cut you get the first 5 years.

I live in Estonia and it has a nice startup culture, chill atmosphere, and just a great place to live, but salary is peanuts compared to NL unless you work for Wise, Bolt, or one of the 134234234 online casino providers. CoL is of course much lower than western Europe, but still much higher than it should be at the salary level here. But software engineers easily make 2-3x median salary, with 5-7x median salary not out of the realm of possibility at high-end positions in high-end companies. So you won't be strapped for cash if you're good.

I've heard Ireland is good. No idea of how true that is, but they do speak English, if reluctantly.

That said, the actual Irish language is rather melodic, and learning it is a fun project.

Gather up your queens and kings. Time to make some more!

Not in America. Here, anyone can be a total asshole billionaire and purchased the entire country's political system if they so want.

Feels bad to realize your profession isn't particularly useful outside of the U.S. I'd like to stay and fight regardless, but the reality is if I stop being able to get my meds there won't be much I can do besides being fodder.

Out of curiosity, what is your profession?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

You probably don't want that answer.
