Good afternoon everyone! I'm looking forward to moving to Seattle by the end of this year. I was told it was pricey depending on the area. What areas do anyone recommend? And I'm a city lover and love to explore new things. But mainly a homebody at times. Thank you all for your help.

I like Kirkland, it really depends on where your office is and if you need to be onsite. Traffic can suck.

Hey, congrats on the move! Seattle is definitely pricey, but there are some great areas to check out. If you're looking for something budget friendly and cozy, I'd check out Bitter Lake, First Hill, or Rainier View. Also west Seattle and places like Crown Hill in Ballard are great too

I live in Bitter Lake and I agree. Plus there are some good bus routes running through it.

Greenwood and Broadview

I recommend anywhere north or south of the city that is close to the train. I live in Lynnwood (north), but the train goes almost straight to work. I'm on it for 40 minutes each way, but I can get off anywhere along the way and check out the rest of the city.

I feel like I’m overlooked a lot because I like to think that my work stands for itself — so I tend not to network as much. Does anyone have any tips on getting better about putting yourself out there? Any tips greatly appreciated (just a bit tired of losing to the extroverts in 2021 still)

Anyone feel frustrated at times with the super aggressive sales personalities we deal with? My AE is always pushing on every ask no matter how minuscule it is. My vp is super anal about anything we do. I understand these guys pull in huge commissions and bonuses that’s why they are so motivated. However what I personally feel is they just nag us until we do the job according to their spec. Just venting……anyone else feel the same?
