I'm talking mostly about the French economics here, but my feeling is that it's more or less the same throughout Europe (technological delay with the USA)
Node.js jobs are starting to open in big cities (like Paris) but are more often than not start-ups or small companies building backends for mobile apps. Node is slowly coming inside big companies, mostly in the media industry (TV, On-Demand, etc.) but oddly enough, not for streaming purposes. Node.js dev positions are still rare as employee but it is possible to find some node.js work as freelance. However I wouldn't recommend betting only on Node.js to find freelance work.
