I have spent many years working for a large employer there. Flying up from the Bay Area was, hour drive to airport, hour to plane, hour and a half flight, 20min to car rental, 60 to 180min bitching about getting from SeaTac to Redmond/Bellevue. Which is stupid. Carpool lanes made no difference. Infrastructure sucks there. Even when staying there, let’s say Woodinville or Kirkland. Driving to Bellevue or Redmond let alone Seattle sucks worse than those.
