Germany is a huge exporter of precision-engineering so there might be a cultural sentiment there.

As a devil's advocate, how can a company expect to be viewed impartially if the only folks who review them have tempers raged enough to motivate them to leave a poor review in the first place? How can I, a potential employee, trust said-reviewer wasn't let go due to Silo'd mismanagement, personal issues or a company pivoting?
I'd rather a platform that lays out exactly what the working conditions would be for most folks. Time in/out of office, salary merit increases or profit-sharing, draconian work-attire policy, etc.

Seeing that I'm in NYC, I think there are a few cultural, political and culinary reasons to choose a city to transition few. Here are a few of my requirements:
-Strong local job economy if in the event I lose my current position (my job is not sought after enough for me to gain remote positions immediately) -Cheap(er) real estate (this isn't hard considering I'm from NYC) -Left/Democrat-leaning locale (the state doesn't have to be blue but where I live should have an unshamed democratic community) -Some clustered seasonality (that removes FL, AZ, AL, and the northern state for their harsh winter)
My top cities I had in mind: -Raleigh or Charlotte (I have some trepidations about what the Republican leadership did recently) - Explosive growth which the city is not accustomed to/for - Traffic will be a nightmare if the rate continues (almost 0 public transport) - Good tech scene (Research Triangle) and quite cheap real-estate - Might be suburban hell/boring

However, PATH is meandering near the border of MTA's hellish confines and looks drunk enough to stumble in. Couple that with the incessant development (there are 4 towers in constructions near Paulus hook) and already stressed PATH infra and you can guess what can happen next.
On the whole, JC is better than BK for a myriad of reasons.

It would be faster for me to crawl on the ground to the nearest PoP and plugin to a GPON port then it would be for me to wait for them.
He's just choosing not to head for those avenues of founders.
