    My employer closed down its former HQ on the east coast & moved it to Austin in 2019. Much of the old HQ contained engineering teams. The CEO explained that all engineering was shifting to 100% remote so that they could start hiring the best tech talent they could find no matter where they lived. All non-technical jobs (finance, HR, marketing, etc) were moved to an existing office in Austin, where he said it would be relatively easy to hire from the talent available in that area.

    I’ve been working remotely for 5 years now and really enjoy it. I’m also working not only with folks from all over the US, but globally now as well.
