Is it worth moving to Florida for a Software Eng. position at Magic Leap
Trying to get an idea how Magic Leap is doing and is it worth moving from the Bay Area to Florida ?
No.
Unless you like Florida.
Tough one. Not many big tech companies in Florida if you choose to leave Magic Leap. But you get nice weather, and no state income tax
Florida beaches are the best in the world. Interview there and see for yourself.
I don’t really care about the beaches
What do you care about?
This is out of law - TC or GTFO!
Lol
FL? fuck no
Ask them to offer you a role in bay area office if they have a match here
It’s Dania Beach, which is realistically 2 hours away from the cool part of South Florida/Miami. There’s nothing to do except golf, eat seafood, or retire in that area. As for Magic Leap, they have offices around the world but I’m afraid they’re burning way too much cash for any sustainability with their product. Now, if we are talking about Miami, there are some areas definitely better worth living in than the Bay Area.
On a company level as well, Magic Leap isn’t worth joining?
HQ is not in Dania Beach, it's in Plantation, a suburb of Ft. Lauderdale. It's about 1hr away from Miami and 20 mins from Ft. Lauderdale. Both have a nightlife although obviously Miami's is bigger.
You could have stopped at Florida. Answer is no.
What is the TC?!
