Seems like very few people on here based in NYC or even consider NYC as an option. I'm in SF but looking to make a move. Is it just that opportunities in tech are more limited? What about opportunities at satellite offices at major tech companies?

  • Cost of living is worse than SF and salaries worse than Seattle.

    • This is all false. Salary is comparable to SF and there are other places to live that are not Manhattan.

      Yeah, I don't know what companies pay more in Seattle than they do in New York. I know firsthand that Amazon bumps about 10-15% just on a COL basis between the two.

  • LinkedIn, Google, and FB are all great places to work as an engineer in NYC. At LI, we got some great positions open. Also, don't discount fintech. Those companies come with a pretty paycheck.

    If you’re moving to New York work for a SF company with a NY office. NY companies: worse pay, worse perks, no autonomy, hierarchal, and bosses think they own you. It’s all finance and consulting culture. If you’re a finance douchebag then you’ll love it.

    Do NYC teams get to work on interesting projects though? Seems like satellite offices rarely get high profile projects to work on

    Amazon also now has devs in Manhattan I think. And Audible.

      Amazon has had a Dev office in Manhattan since 2011, but now it's gotten much bigger (and we just got a new building). There's also Audible, Quidsi, and ComiXology in or near the city as far as subsidiaries go.
