| Comment | Glasgow has a lot of corporate jobs, largely in banking. There's a small start up scene, but it's smaller than it ought to be for a city of its size. There are good tech jobs here don't get me wrong.
Edinburgh has corporate jobs, several tech unicorns (e.g. FanDuel and Skyscanner), games (Rockstar) and a huge startup scene including a successful tech incubator.
In terms of raw jobs I could believe that they are roughly equal due to JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley and Barclays having huge footprints in Glasgow, but Edinburgh is definitely.more diversified.
Let's put it this way, whe recruiters comtact me I feel like 75% of the time their first question is "would you consider a role in Edinburgh? "
That's my perception anyway. |
