“Expats ranked Switzerland highly for both financial and personal well-being criteria. The combination of high salaries and excellent work culture has placed Switzerland at the top of the careers league table,” he added.
Around half of those expats working in Europe said the working culture in the country they relocated to was better than their home country.
