Payment hasn't came into it for me yet, I am currently unaware of how much money I would be earning in a role in the USA, and it isn't my main focus anyway. Goldan Sachs have a massive recruitment drive on at the minute, but because of my location they wont help me move, they only offer recruitment to their London buildings. CME are the same, as they are moving a lot of their development to Northern Ireland. Unfortunately. Is there a job market that focuses on C, C++ and java roles, in the USA? I don't even need to focus directly on the finance industry, I would be happy to move to another sector.
