As another person living in Austin, do you see our current pandemic increasing or decreasing immigration in the next couple years? I have a guess it will actually increase as companies shift to lower cost locations.
- pm90 6y agoIncreasing number of SV companies are getting comfy with remote working due to the pandemic. That’s likely to contribute to the exodus from CA as well.
- gbpz 6y agoI'm curious about the economic impact to CA if a lot of those jobs migrate out. But CA has plenty of other industries, so they'll be fine.
- momokoko 6y agoThose jobs aren’t going to other cities. They are going to other countries. The most affordable city is the US can’t even come close to the salary savings from moving to many of the well established outsourcing markets. Remote work is incredibly popular with US companies. It’s called outsourcing and it’s about to get even more popular.
- gbpz 6y agoThere was a comment about Paypal migrating some jobs over there. Don't know about their veracity. Funny as I'm moving back to Round Rock, but as a remote worker. Housing is about to get more expensive I gather. :(
