As above, when is the information leaking? Would be good to know so that I can job search at HQ2 location as a backup. I know that DC/Maryland/Virginia has long been speculated to the final site. Boston and maybe Austin are strong second candidates too. Does anyone know for sure?
Atlanta still seems to be in the running as well.
Iiiin West Philadelphia born and raised!
Even you fled that dump for Bel Air. Bezos sure won’t want it.
Is Chicago in the running at all?
Ewwww
Why eww? Chicago is a great.
It's going to be Toronto due to the US's terrible immigration policies. Amazon doesn't want to gamble on "can we keep employees here to work on our critical projects" anymore. US talent will continue to go to Seattle. International talent will go to Toronto.
I doubt this. Amazon isn’t going to piss Trump off for the sake of hq2
Amazon has already pissed Trump off. But Trump is only here for a short time. Amazon plays for the long term.
It's D.C. area, and that was the plan all along. HQ2 was a giant publicity stunt intended to stroke Bezos' ego.
Which county though? Loudoun or Montgomery
It’s already been decided LA
Not sure why any suburbs are in the running at all. I thought Jeff said he dislikes suburban campuses *cough* Microsoft *cough*. If we do move to the burbs I hope this means actual perks at work like the other suburban tech companies (FB, Alphabet, etc). Otherwise I can’t imagine the soul crushing boredom of living in Montgomery County MD. People think Seattle is bad/boring af, wait till you live in NoVa.
Think about it. SLUs lunch options are mostly in the Amazon buildings. Amazon likely profits from these sales. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the food trucks somehow pay into Amazon. Do you really think Amazon would do this any differently elsewhere? They will just install cafeterias in suburban campuses where employees pay for their costs and profits. As long as they continue the RSU comp model, Amazon will always win with Frugality. They will even when the stock finally ends up tracking the major indexes.

Been obvious that it will be VA for a while now. They are probably holding off on the announcement to extract maximum tax breaks.
Obvious? Care to share some details?
Bezos is building a mansion there, he brought the board for a tour, etc
