I am a CS new grad and have an option to join the Bing team at either location. Any advice that might make the choice easier?
I live less than 15 min from Sunnyvale. My perception is its not terrible but I’d choose to live in Bellevue if i could. Silicon Valley / Sunnyvale has too many tech workers focused on career, I value being somewhere a bit more “normal”. SF might be nice but that has its own issues
Unless you already use Bing (really, who does?) then why join a loser team??
TC OR GTFO
Probably more opportunities in Bellevue, but Sunnyvale has better weather.
Bellevue. Then, switch to Azure. Most of Azure teams are in WA.
Don’t move to Seattle area, you will regret for life. It’s depressing as hell. If you have the slightest inkling of SAD, stay away from Seattle area.
Bellevue for sure.
