- moogleii 7y agoOne of the things I love about NYC is how diverse it is both in people and industry. I don’t really know many finance types (at least assuming they are how they’re stereotyped); my social cross section seems to be tech, education, art, and law, so I guess I managed to miss that part of your experience. Otherwise, my experience has largely been the opposite. I’ve worked with expats from Japan and Europe, and most of them love it here. Most of the Japanese folks actually chose to bypass the West coast entirely, having never been there, and came straight to NYC. One described it as “the future” in terms of diversity. But yeah, it’s a big city, and I see shitty behavior all the time, so I’m not surprised by your experience.
