It's not the same environment, but I think that you're way off base regarding the quality of engineers. Of course, as a software engineer in Pittsburgh, I may have blinders on. ;) On the other hand, given the rate that Google is growing in Pittsburgh, I suspect they'd disagree with you about available talent quality. (On the third hand, "quality" is a fuzzy metric unless we nail down more concretely how one would evaluate it. Is someone writing thousands of lines of code per day at Facebook higher "quality" than someone writing a hundred lines of code per day on machine-learning cancer detection logic?)
