Out of curiosity, what does "Remote (UK)" mean for you? Does it mean that the work can be done only when physically in UK, the tax residency of an employee has to be in UK or an employee has to be within the same timezone?

Interesting observation. Perhaps it is just a result of how London-centric the UK is.

That and a rather declining tech scene. Most places are agile shops cargo culting supposedly good practice, yet somehow software systems fail spectacularily (banks, airports, government sites, ecommerce, etc). Probably because talent is diverted to higher paying, modern, locations.

UK here, I didn't know it could be any other way?

It would appear that it's making it less desireable even for natives to continue being settled.

Where are they going? The US is famously hard to get into for foreigners wanting to work, as is Australia really. Are they working in the EU, or nomading?

I don't think the US is that difficult for tech workers specifically. You do have to put up with a couple of things (H1-B instability) but it's not that different from the UK, where e.g. you have at will employment until you have worked at the same company for 2 years, which for tech workers is also when a lot of ICs are looking for a new position!

As for the lack of holiday and paid health insurance, that's easily compensated by the huge pay disparity in tech. Honestly, the only reason I didn't go to the US is that I was afraid I might meet someone there and end up staying there. That's on my personal political views of the US which a lot of people wouldn't be bothered about.
