I just signed an offer at FB to start at MPK in June. But my wife has just gotten into a top-5 graduate program at UW. I'll move with her of course, but I also take care of my grandparents down in MTV. Would I be able to find a team in Seattle that would let me travel to MPK for, say, a week out of every month? I'm coming in at E4. Edit: alternative is she goes to the #n-2 ranked program down here. It is not a divorce or quit situation.
Great job! If you explain your situation, i cant see why this will be a problem. Or wife can rent a place in seattle and u can be in mtv.
Shouldn't be any problem. My last team would have loved if I was willing to travel that much.
Find team that actively work with MPK - it will limit your options though. Calendar is open so you can check people in what team travel regularly.
I can deal with that. How common is it that teams are split/have a footprint in both offices? I will almost certainly be working within Core Systems
Most Seattle teams have people in Cali. The reverse isn't true
If divorce isn't an option have you looked at converting to an open marriage/ relationship? This would allow you and your spouse to see others and engage in relationships with others in your local area. That way it keeps your spouse from feeling lonely and saves you from needing to move to Seattle.
Suffice it to say that we've reached an arrangement that satisfies us both in that regard. I want to be near her because I love her.
Aww :)
