I think people with that mentality were unlikely to even get a job in SV. The ridiculous interview process alone should be a barrier enough.

- coliveira 6y agoThat's not true. Many people go to big cities and SV because of the jobs. If they had a choice, they would prefer to live somewhere else.
- bradlys 6y agoI’m aware of that - as that was the reason I moved to the Bay Area as well. But I’ve been here a few years, I could get a job elsewhere without the leetcode interview. It just wouldn’t pay as well or have the same career growth track.
- VRay 6y agoI don't care about career growth, but I do care about adding an extra 50k/year to my net worth for the same work with the same standard of living (or living in a crappy little hole-in-the-wall apartment and saving even more) If I can make a competitive amount of money without living in California's armpit, I'm going to do it for sure
