Opinions wanted! Google and Amazon NYC/Seattle

Google recruiter informed me they want to move forward with team match. I interviewed for Seattle but mentioned interest in NYC. They got back to me and I’m able to speak to teams from both offices. Some extra info: * I really like my work and team right now... working <= 40hrs/wk. High impact as well. * I’ve always lived in Washington state. Visited Manhattan a couple of times and loved it. * 26 y/o single male TC: 185k L5 No offer details from G yet Looking for people who’ve done the transition to chime in too.

As a 26 yo single male , the best decision you can make for yourself is to move to nyc. Amzn / goog doesn’t matter much

This is how I’m leaning

It really depends on what you want to accomplish, but no one can decide for you

Which team are you in now? < 40 hrs/week with high impact sounds like a dream to me

Excursion isn’t immigration. Go live in nyc if you loved it, but I bet you’ll hate it soon and will come back :)

Don't undervalue being on a team you like and doing work you like with decent hours. That's a very rare setup.

Ya it’s really the only reason I’ve included staying at amazon in this discussion.
