I have noticed this. There seems to be a massive gap between the finance sector and everyone else. I'm not too sure what to make of that. For the sake of comparison, the average salary for a Software Engineer at Google in London, according to Glassdoor (before bonuses) is £45k.

I find that very hard to believe... that's way too low.

I used to work for big blue in London and that would probably be about right for there too, if not slightly more generous.

Outside of the financial sector the money is just not that good in this country.
