that is abysmal!
36 hour work week, flexible hours, 25 paid holidays and a 10% pension though...
As a Finnish dev with 12 years of experience, I can only aspire for such salary.

That's a fairly standard wage outside London for senior developers.

UK wages are not great.

The balancing force to this though, is that cost of living outside of London is massively lower
american salaries must be ridiculous if £70k (~$93.5k) is considered "abysmal(ly)" low!

as others have said, some may be in for a very rude awakening...

For that level of experience you can prob get 200k in a MCOL area in the US, or up to 500k+ in HCOL

The rest of the world has already been in a rude awakening, talented engineers should be compensated well no matter where they happen to live

Maybe you missed the “25% discount in our shops and cafes” perk for the day you need to be in the office. Score.
Wait till you see UK wages, when it's the UK arm of a US firm....
wait till you hear about the stock grants and vesting schedule
