Anyone living in the Portland, OR area or nearby have insight into job prospects? Possibly moving to the area. Currently 100% WFH at a F100 which will last me at least a few months, but RTO may force me to find new job. Worried I'll be stranded jobless.

8yrs and counting, I relocated from Seattle, WA area to the Portland, OR area and 100% Remote/WFH. If there’s a way to connect privately I’m happy to share my thoughts and experiences in that transition especially in Finance.

There must be a way…I just do not know of a pathway to connect non-publicly via this platform.

It's awful that. I moved here 2.5 years ago when I was told I could stay remote, then was laid off a year ago. The jobs just aren't here, we've got Nike (struggling), Intel (allegedly picking up, but struggling), and HP (this office isn't huge though). I'm looking at jobs in other cities because they're just not here.

If you to want to move to Portland, set yourself up with a company that's remote first or 100000% won't require RTO before moving here. I really, really wish I had.

You should post in the job referral bowl. You may be able to get some leads in there. That bowl has been super helpful for me in terms of leads. You could also try over on Linked in. I usually have good luck over there! Best of luck to you.

Thanks, got zero bites from the job referral bowl. LinkedIn has a few listings all of which are entry level, CFO-level, or volunteer/contract basis. Was crossing my fingers there was more than that given Nike, Intel, Adidas, HP, etc. are there.
