My fiancé and I are considering moving from the NE Ohio area to Charlotte. Any recommendations of good companies to work for in the area? I’m currently working in a financial reporting/business analytics role but it’s entry level at a low tech company.

Also curious on any general thoughts about the CLT area as a place to live?

If you do not have family here or a career-driven relocation, I would consider other areas.

I moved to Charlotte roughly 10 years ago, and it was great. Now it is not - there has been steady and significant increases in cost of living, crime, and traffic. We also had a two million gallon oil spill in Huntersville in 2020 that is still being cleaned up, and the public schools are sub-par in most areas unless you go outside of Mecklenburg county.

If you ultimately decide that Charlotte is the right place then you'll find a heavy concentration of financial services companies, but there are other large organizations such as Lowe's, Honeywell, Duke Energy, etc.

Just relocated back to Charlotte with my family from Cleveland. Endless possibilities for jobs in your field - I’d start with the big banks (BoA, Wells Fargo, etc) or consulting firms (PwC, Deloitte).

Highly recommend CLT, really enjoy living here, although housing is much more expensive than NEO.

Many people don’t know that United Rentals largest corporate office is based in Charlotte- over 600 people. Many of these roles are posted out of CT and AZ but could be in CLT. So if you see something no matter where posted you should apply!

I moved from Pennsylvania in 2018 and still love it here!

Here is an example of what I mean - a large group of people threw fireworks into a crowd of families/etc. in Uptown who were there to celebrate Independence Day. Some of the perpetrators were carrying firearms and the police chief said that without rapid response things could have been much worse (45+ arrests were made)
