What are you defining as a BigCo? In the UK I can only really think of FAANG, a small number of hedge funds / HFT firms, and more recently some AI firms that are paying that level of salary.

I'm also guessing that salaries in football might be suppressed similar to video games jobs. There'll be a lot of people willing to work under market rate because they enjoy the football environment.

Yup those guys and fintech. They're the big players in UK (well London) tech employment if total comp is what matters.
