I have not seen companies offer RSUs, higher bonuses in Texas but same companies offer a much higher TC in bay area or in cities like Seattle, San Fransisco etc. Is it worth the hassle to move to tech hot spots like SF, Seattle for more money? On the other hand sacrifices would be lower housing.

Just trying to make high leve plans. Any pointers/views will be helpful

No, unless you are already in the expensive part of Austin, then maybe. But if you don't own a home or your house is less than 500k, it's just too big of a cost of living change to swallow IMO.

OK, but are they going to double or triple again over the next 15 years? Because your price point then is not relevant to OP now. As for "boring", I already addressed nightlife, beyond that + being an easy drive to mountains, not sure what you think is more exciting about SF, let alone the rest of the south bay. And yes Texas drivers are horrendous, but so are California's, and the bay traffic is horrendous, too. I'm personally not a fan of Texas, Dallas in particular, but I get the appeal of Austin, and would live there over SF if those were my only 2 choices. Seattle, San Diego, Boston, or even Salt Lake would rank higher than both for me personally, but I love the Indianapolis-Chicago-Milwaukee-Minneapolis corridor where I'm located.

Signed the offer with a competitor, but multiple bosses tried to persuade me to stay with the planned growth opportunities in sight. Still decided to leave, and got "wishing you all the best". Guilty much, I love working with the team, but just want to get better progression and pay.
