I do agree but American big tech does hire quite a bit here, no? Amazon, google, msft, meta all have fairly big offices all over Europe. And many other big tech companies aswell, especially since fully remote jobs becoming way more common.

Yeah but what is the percentage of EU devs working at FAANG EU offices from the total number of devs in Europe? <1%?
I think you might be living in bubble if you assume everyone is making bank because FAANG have a couple of offices in the EU (most are in UK/CH which aren't in the EU)
>fully remote jobs becoming way more common
Fully remote jobs aren't common at all where I live (Austria) and have many negative consequences since you have to be self employed as a contractor, so you pay more taxes while missing out on pension, PTO, sick leave, parental leave, and other such benefits normally guaranteed by law for employees.
