Hi all, moving to Chicago soon and hoping to find a new job, too (Google won’t let me transfer). I have the big names on my list (McDonalds, Caterpillar, Salesforce, etc and am on BuiltIn) but curious if there are companies specifically with a big design presence. I’m currently a Design Program Manager and hoping to stay in a similar role.

Interesting that Google won’t let the transfer through since there is a decent size office here.

Not true at all. Offering hybrid is the new perk on the block that will keep talent coming. Even C level doesn't want to be sitting in traffic 2 hours a day to leave and come back to their mansions out in the burbs.

CapitalOne, publicis group/subsidiaries, boeing, and then consulting firms

There are also several marketing agencies in Chicago, but something tells me the salary gap between Google and other companies could cost you a pretty penny.

I’m ex-agency so definitely not a bad idea. I’m willing to take a cut for a long term gain for my family.

Google is rebuilding the Thompson Center in downtown right now. They aren’t offering any of you positions to work there?
