BOS —> ATL

Hello Gang, I’m on the business side for Walmart right now. Walmart Global Tech recently offered me a role to move to the San Bruno office, but I’d be taking a demotion from L6 to E5. YOE: 8, COMP(200k base, 25% bonus, 100k RSU). Is this competitive in the bay? I have Doordash and Instacart in the pipeline, but no final offers yet.

Originally from DC and now live in SD. Similar COL but smaller job market in SD but great weather and laid back culture. Wouldn’t move back to DC even if they pay me 20% more.
Well this is interesting but I appreciate the perspectives. Yeah I’m not sure where I want to end up. Been in DC for 3 years but I feel like I’m 25 going on 50. It would be nice to go to beach town for a few years to turn off my brain in a way before settling down.

Originally from DC, now live is SD. CA taxes are higher and job market is not as good in SD. Weather is amazing but make sure you and your beau have jobs lined up. People are different too.
Lived in both - not very different COL when everything is considered.
