Good point, but not sure if it's going to become a tech hub per se

Doubt it, we hardly have any meaningful headquarters here and the weather isn't that attractive for techies and executives.

You really don't think so?

Phoenix has been boasting that it’s going to be a tech hub since 2006. What shows up are “call centers” for tech companies.
Phoenix= “Largest Tech-hub mirage in the desert”

Hmm very interesting question. I dont' really think it will be.

It really could. It does seem like things have been growing alot lately. I could very well see it becoming a major tech hub a ways down the road.

Hi so I need help. I currently work to bring clients into the company i work at for web design, social media management, and brand strategy. I also do this as feeelance on the side, so where do I draw the line between who I refer to the company I work for or who I personally do freelance for? I don’t want to short out the company I work for but also love freelance and am more than capable of the work.

Preparing to give notice to my current firm. Accepted an amazing opportunity to lateral at a more prestigious firm (better compensation, lower billables, and shorter commute).
I’m excited to make this jump, but it’s still bittersweet for me because the partners at my current firm are truly amazing and I have learned a lot from them over the past few years and will miss them a lot. Any insight on the best way to have this convo without burning bridges? Thanks!
