Google Seattle to SF move

How easy is it to move from Seattle to SF internally in Google for a PM?

Depends entirely on product/team

Does the move need to be in the same team?

No

When you say depends on product/team, are you referring to current team or the target team in SF. If someone is flexible on the target team is it possible to move? How does it work do you have to reach out to target team, interview and get an offer?

Why would you want to go Seattle to SF? Pay is same, taxes worse, rent is way worse, traffic is worse.

This is true

Amazon Jedii OP Dec 17, 2017

Personal reasons.

Why would pay be the same?

My friend in Google relocated from Bay to Seattle, his pay got 10% cut

Exactly. If you go from Seattle to the Bay your pay increases. Not sure what you guys are talking about

My original question still remains unanswered :-)
