Comment Re:Talent visas but not in-house training (Score 2) 47
One issue I've seen with training is that they don't want to give big salary increases afterwards. Once trained that person will be able to get more money elsewhere if they don't offer it. Why not offer it? They seem to think that other employees will be upset if they give free training and big salary increases to one of their colleagues. They'd rather avoid the whole mess by just hiring someone new.
The UK is a low wage economy by European standards. You can earn a lot more in the EU, if you can get there post-brexit. Ireland is a good bet for developers because you can just move there, no visa required.
