> Jobs are handing out more money with more flexibility than ever seen before.

I'm in the UK and not seeing any of this.

I'm in the UK too. But also remote means you can get a job "based" anywhere. Check out some US firms for instance, many are hiring and are happy with euro time zones.

Is that your experience with US companies hiring at the moment?

I never considered this type of roles before because it was sort of a given in my head that they would want US based candidates for taxation reasons.

Have you seen a big change regarding this, from US based companies?

Look for US based companies that hire globally.

I work at CrowdStrike. Fully remote. Amazing compensation, team, work.

We're hiring too :)

Y’all have Brexit to thank for that. All my clients relocated any technical work they had in the UK to Poland or the baltics.

It's a bit of coup out to jump on the British where somehow everything negative that happens is due to Brexit.

As counter anecdata, I am in the Netherlands and I am (now, as much as before) receiving calls for job opportunities from UK based recruiters. They are for the majority concentrated around London, Oxbridge, Bristol, Manchester. Depending on where GP is based in the UK, the landscape and opportunities can be quite different.

Irrespective of the politics and bitter emotions, London's VC funding scene is arguably the closest we have in Europe to SV/Seattle/NY and it will continue to play a role in making the UK relevant in the tech scene.

That sounds incredibly naive.

Why remove large groups of skilled engineers in your businesses domain and have to retrain again, because of a political change. I can understand a company with a manufacturing base doing this (due to import / export regulations changing), but this makes no sense in software.
