I wouldn't move to the US for any amount of money.
- rcarmo 4y agoNeither would I, but I also have trouble seeing myself working for a European company given the way they slowly circle the drain when making decisions instead of being more pragmatic.
- throw0101c 4y ago> I wouldn't move to the US for any amount of money. As a Canadian I wouldn't move mostly for family reasons, but in a more general sense there are very few places that seem appealing to me. I grew up and have always lived in an urban area, and when I look at the US there don't seem to be that many places that have the 'vibe' I'm into: as a high-level litmus test, it'd be places with good public transit that I could bicycle around as well. Given that a good portion of the US was built post-WW2, large swaths of it are very car-centric. (True in Canada too.)
- RestlessMind 4y ago> As a Canadian I wouldn't move As a counterpoint and large scale data - ~85% of Waterloo SE grads move to the US on graduating per https://uw-se-2020-class-profile.github.io/profile.pdf https://uw-se-2020-class-profile.github.io/profile.pdf. Survey completion rate was 77%.
- throw0101c 4y agoGood for them. But I wrote "I", not "we". I was speaking for myself.
- sys_64738 4y agoYour loss then. America is the best country in the world and I say that as a European.
