Comment LOTS of better locations... (Score 1) 797
I'll have to agree with many others that there are lots of other (unmentioned) locations in the U.S. I work for a small company in the EDA industry. Probably 90% of the other companies in our industry are located in the Bay Area. We have often found it a big selling point when recruiting that we offer competitive salaries to those companies, but in areas (Pittsburgh, PA and Phoenix, AZ) where that money is worth A LOT more.
Both of the areas we are located in have good schools to recruit from, and are decent sized cities with everything for good quality of life. Phoenix especially has a huge high tech community already. You just have to put up with 100 degrees in the summer, but its beautiful in february.
