Thinking of moving to NYC from the west coast for family reasons. The concern, however, is whether I'm too spoiled by the west coast environment / hours. Additionally, how is housing/rent there?

Rent is comparable if you're comparing Manhattan and SF. It definitely has a different vibe and the weather but you may get used to it. I did and I made a move from the bay area to Boston years ago.

I'm thinking of doing the opposite, so interested in people's opinions. Based on what I saw on Trulia, rent in NY is pretty comparable (meaning expensive AF)

Moved from NYC to SF back to NYC. You’ll be fine. Don’t overthink it

Hi fishes! I am in final HR discussions with Ericsson. They are offering Job Stage 5 -- 13lpa (not final). Java Spring Boot, YoE 4.5/5.9. CCTC is 7.7lpa and offer in hand is 11lpa. Am I being low balled as per Ericsson's standards?

How do I deal with this?

I almost had a policy I wrote replaced by basically the same coverage but at a higher premium because the other agent grossly misrepresented their product. Feels good to cause a scammer to get a CB.

Low billable, low pressure work in privacy law? Slowly realizing that as my boys get older, the money isn’t worth what I’m missing out on. Currently a tech litigation associate with lots of hearing, depo and trial experience (I’ve appeared on my own at hearings/depos) at a well respected firm. I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.
