I moved away from a mid-sized city where the tech employers consisted of:
* Giant defense contractor. The kind of place you'd have to fill out paperwork to enter some of the rooms at.
* The University
* Local government
* A couple of hardware companies and like 2 software startups.
Needless to say, I am much happier with my job prospects in the Bay Area (not to mention my paycheck).

- tropo 10y agoThe giant defense contractor probably has amazing projects once you get past the paperwork. If you want to change the world, well there you go. You probably won't work overtime, but if you do there are federal limits before they have to pay you extra. Age discrimination is unlikely. The university is probably interesting. Actual pay is probably terrible, but you might get free tuition for your kids. The "couple of hardware companies" sounds promising. That might be real programming, with C or even assembly.
