It's mostly back office functions that are being relocated to TX if you look closer
lol everyone is "leaving california", but literally the only major company that has left is hp enterprises.
elon talks a lot of shit, but he never left the bay LMAO
Yeah it's kinda hilarious about Elon pretending to be anti California. I get the appeal factor of being against liberal government with big taxes but the talent pool is too good to dismiss.
I'm from a midwest state school and know two people personally that work at Tesla/SpaceX. May just be anecdotal but there's plenty of great engineers everywhere tbh.
No doubt there are. It's just easier to recruit when HQ'd in California when the proximity to Stanford is so close and you have an endless supply of grads that want to work there.
