I currently make around $175K base and $220K gross. I got offer at Raleigh, NC pretty close to the same compensation. Thinking to move to NC. I can save a lot, buy home for family, less commute. But will lose Valley's tech scene. What are your thoughts? I believe moving will help focus more on family and raise my kids with more personal time. I feel Bay Area is not like before. Too much expensive homes, crime, commute, mechanical life. Just want to know your thoughts??
Just move! You can get a much better life for kids and save a lot
I worked for few months back in 2008. Liked the place
Where in Raleigh can you get that much? PM if needed. I grew up in Raleigh and can provide any data if necessary.
Move! Raleigh is great.
If you dont care about living in devils den (republican states), its a great move
Raleigh is a great place to live! RTP is diverse and progressive area of NC, and it has pretty amazing schools/universities. It comes down to your priorities in the end I guess. But both of your choices are pretty good, so you can't go wrong either ways! Curious to know your role and company you are moving to, if you don't mind sharing.
Can you take me with you š
Really! Iām a good ops person! Will relocate. Looking to kick ass and take names!
What if the new company is not doing well or you don't like the new job/company ? Is it easy to find another job there with the similar pay?
The triangle region is a tech hub in its own right. Great colleges and growing area too
You'll be hella rich with that salary in raliegh.
