On: Work in Lithuania

[xeeeeeeeeeeenu]

It's weird that this website seems to target people from countries much richer than Lithuania.

From the footer:

"Work in Lithuania is an initiative of the Foreign Investment Development Agency Invest Lithuania which aims to encourage professionals from abroad to pursue their careers in Lithuania."

Why is that weird? Specialists could form a nucleus around which more jobs form. If I were looking for work I'd rather work in Lithuania than San Francisco.

Because salaries in Lithuania are much lower than in Western Europe (which has much lower salaries than SF).

And no, the lower cost of living doesn't completely offset that. Unfortunately Eastern Europe is still less developed and poorer than the West.

Average salaries and individual salaries are not the same thing.
