I am so done with this city. After 6 years, I just can’t deal with the winters anymore. Not into winter sports, so there’s barely anything to do for 6 months. When we finally had warm weather for a week, I felt like a different person. Don’t get me started on the stupid housing market. Too bad there’s nowhere else to go. SoCal doesn’t have enough tech jobs, Bay area no way and Austin is in a state where they’re trying to ban abortion. Where to go Blind?
Northern Virginia New Orleans Tampa But imo Austin and Bay Area are worth compromising the cons
SoCal have the most software jobs I have ever seen. Lots of startups, and many big companies. I think they have more tech companies than the greater Seattle area.
LA and San Diego have more than Amazon and Microsoft? I don't think so....
I was job searching recently, found many FinTech startups. Some big tech have presence their. Like I interviewed for a team in amazon, that happened to be building a team in LA.
Wait. So you aren't going to Austin because they are trying to ban abortion. Is that applicable to you. Just curious.
"Austin is in a state where they're trying to ban abortion." Stay in Seattle, you belong there.
I’m pretty right for Seattle’s standards, but yeah I don’t want to live in a state where people are against basic rights.
Facebook a Jesus freak?
It's not cool using a police state to rule over people's bodies and medical decisions. Maybe you could try Iran or North Korea?
Wow, don't read much history, I take it. Equating Texas to North Korea only wins you points with people just as ignorant as you are.
Lol yeah. I just don’t know how long I can sacrifice my mental health for my career.
LOL Talks about career, is at Amazon. Amazon is basically career poison. For my part, I basically never hire anyone from Amazon, and would basically never work for someone from Amazon.
Probably super concerned about income inequality too, but is unwilling to give up her own unequally high TC. Best stay in Seattle.
I am willing to give up my high TC. I’d easily take half of what I’m making to be in a city I like. The problem is job opportunities... I don’t want to be stuck at a job I don’t like.
So you're not really for income equality. You're just willing to trade some TC to have a job you "like", or "choose".
Get a remote job and move wherever you want.
I don’t think they’ll stick. Hybrid will probably be the way forward.
Go to dropbox, they are serious about it because they can't afford an office anymore 🤣
