Delaware is much cheaper and lower taxes than Cali

PNC DamIT:) OP Jul 29, 2022

What percentage would change in taxes? How are house prices there rental vs buy!!

Can speak only of Deloitte and JPMC- both are fundamentally different so it depends what you want to do career-wise. In Deloitte you’ll be asked to do also a lot of unrelated tasks, in JP you’ll stay more focused on your primary role. Both have crazy working hours, but Deloitte is more flexible (easier to run personal errands at random times as long as you make up for it whenever later)

Cannot be explained. But unless you work in area like chemistry or biology it is a bad idea.

OP, which one did you go with?

160k in Foster City is about 80k in Delaware. You will pay 2k/month for a room and drive 2 hrs one way to work. And as others have said software outside bio informatics is not valued
