Biggest question would be why NYC.

Too expensive, COL is high, pay differential is the same as NJ while the COL is 75% of NYCs. Philadelphia would be better IMO.

Would I be too senior to come in as a lateral hire? I guess it’s all about client networks at this level, and being government, it’s locationally dependent - so which markets have need?
