An anecdote: All the exceptionally talented engineers that I know already left the country (That is like 5 of my friends) and found very lucrative jobs on various European countries. Not only that but not so exceptionally talented engineers that I know also managed to leave the country.

Each week I tend to get so many messages on LinkedIn from engineers in Turkey that want to leave the country...

Funny thing is some of these engineers were actually very nationalistic but even they couldn’t take how the ruling party and Erdogan governs Turkey.

So yeah, personally I wouldn’t bet much money on engineers that are currently staying in Turkey.
