Last time I spoke to someone there a couple of months ago, they said that everybody in the EU bases is waiting with baited breath for the onshore contracts, as the higher taxes might make it very unattractive to be based in the EU area and everybody senior enough to bid back to HKG will do so. They were basically predicting an exodus unless CX would significantly raise the Salaries for EU bases.

Do you have any updated information? I'm considering a EU base (London or Frankfurt) if they offer me a position since I hold work permits both in the US and EU.

Thanks!
