The culture difference is huge. I would venture to say that Silicon Valley is probably closer to NYC culturally (at least nowadays) than it is to LA.
But the reason I mentioned it was that you were talking about SV in the context of this article, and I just wanted to make sure that you knew he wasn't actually in SV. But yeah, I guess that's mostly relevant because they're very different areas.
- bb88 9y agoThanks, I appreciate that. I will avoid the LA area when finding my next gig.
- pm90 9y agoWell hold on now :). I was recently job hunting and got a great job offer from a startup in Culver City. Their compensation was competitive (for LA at least) and my impression of the team was extremely good. I also liked LA the last time I was there (strangely enough, for an Onsite at SNAP) so was really excited about it. I chose a competing offer from an SF based company in the end. But It wasn't an easy decision. So don't rule out LA without at least giving it a chance.
