Amarathripple0: Apply the rationale to those other countries as well, save for the free healthcare. Also their currencies do not carry as much weight as the GBP.
As for the bolded, it’s the way they’ve always been. Hence, my countering the thought process behind it. Besides, I’ve noticed that quite a number of tech companies now pay higher than average. The challengers are challenging the likes of Microsoft with the pay scale. Companies like R3, Binance, Amazon, TikTok and quite a number of unicorns pay above average. Netflix and Twitter too, I think As for the currency part, they spend in their currency and not GBP, so I dont think the GBP vs CAD or AUD comparisons hold water If minimum wage in AU is $20/hr and Im getting $80 - $110/hr, isnt that going to be very decent salary? Gotta chose one's poison  |

Amarathripple0: I have come to realise that It’s due to a number of factors.
1. "Free" Healthcare (Cost of health care in the US is ridiculous) 2. Lower cost of living. Compared to the US, the UK is actually cheaper, especially with basic amenities, food/groceries. (However, inflation is affecting this). 3. UK’s economy is not as vast as that of the US. It’s also really just a small island. 4. The power of GBP compared to other currencies. (Event though this has dwindled over the years). I mentioned 3 countries in my post though  ..And you have countered everything yourself  |

Goke7: Taxes are higher in North America and Australia including cost of living. Until in recent times the pounds is still higher in value than the other countries. Considering the economy of scale, folks still argue that the standard of living is still a bit higher than the other nations though many still debate this.
From my own personal research sha there are still some advantages of working in the UK compared to others. But then, in UK you still have to pay taxes without plenty salary. If the standard of living in other places is high, they have the salary to cushion the effects I'm on Reddit now and someone said entry level salaries for his role is the same as he was paid 9 years ago despite inflation and all. No be juju be that? |

Sorry to divert from the topic but why are salaries crazy low in the UK compared to other countries?
I was doing some research on Youtube and found out that what people get paid at Microsoft (US/Canada and Australia) in entry level roles is basically same as what a Director/Manager makes in the UK
I am checking Glassdoor now and £25K / £30K roles in UK = $120K in Australia (Tech). I think the same goes for those in healthcare as I have been researching mental health nursing / social work too
Someone mentioned it to me on Twitter about a year ago and I dismissed his claims citing healthcare and GBP being more than the currency of most countries but having checked now, its weird
Just cant seem to wrap my head around the reason |

Akorkor: If you can get a PR, Canada is the best bet. Getting sponsorship here is also good but if you dont like the job, you may not want to start the process all over again. But for Canada PR, you can change a job as you like once you have PR. And with UK situation now, things are becoming unstable. I know every economy in the world is suffering right now but I will still say you should try Canada How come people rarely mention Australia Offers what Canada offers and x2 of UK with better weather  |

justwise: I think in future they will only allow people who are coming to study certain courses to stay for PSW, i don't think business courses will be on that list. Like I knew they'd later plug holes and was advising people studying these courses to be careful but... They'll turn you to "village people" Maybe students will marry citizens as Lexus has mentioned.
