I know of a handful of folks that have transitioned from Houston to Dallas and from Houston to Austin. Seems more common when a firm opens up a new office (I know several people who moved to and from the new Kirkland offices as they opened in Dallas and Austin).

I did! I was well liked and the Austin office had a need that I was able to fill. I think it will just depend on timing/the firm.

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately, the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However, I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?

I’m a designer in the planning/landscape architecture dept. of a CE firm.

I know that my designs could be better if I could see how things are actually built but I get slapped in the face with “I need you in the office designing/drafting” or “there’s no budget to have you go out” and then sends an intern to inspect instead. I’m 5 yrs out of college. Any advice?
