I was there for a job interview for a weekend. This was for a prominent company(Rhymes with crapasoft). It was insane. First they booked a flight for the wrong day, so i had to call them, to tell them their connector flight did not match when the first flight came into the airport. It would have caused me to be stuck in an airport for a day. They went on to fix it, but then there was a second problem. The people I was interviewing with couldn't bother to show up that day. So I had to go to an interview where half the team was missing. Then they asked me the standard boilerplate questions, nothing particularly hard. Interview was over soon enough. Then I had to call again to find out the status, cause no one in the team could be bothered to relay information back to me in a timely fashion. I ended up not getting the position, but god damn was that the worst experience ever. The big problem is no one cares, they all try to be edgy, and in the process get nothing done. I have yet to understand why a company, which operates in the billions would ever want anything to do with that shit city.

Microsoft as a whole is that shitty. My step-dad use to work for them over a decade ago. It's all political bullshit, no one actually just does the fucking work.
Also microsoft is basically one of the main reasons Seattle turned to shit. It's the only reason Seattle became as massive as it did (Boeing helped but not THAT much). That kind of money helped them become arrogant which allowed PC culture to flourish; it's why, despite how bad Portland, Oregon is, the rest of Oregon isn't THAT bad. Oregon isn't rich enough and only Portland, which is a major city, is super SJW. The rest of rural Oregon is left but mostly sane left. And also why East WA, full of rural and conservative people, are not SJWs.. they don't have tech money and stupid companies Microdick ruining them.

Yeah when I was there, I really could not see the appeal of wanting to live there. The rent was 2x what i payed at the time, in the northeast. And i was living in city centre at the time, so not like i was playing it cheap. Seattle also has a severe,noticeable homeless problem, which is saying something, since I was living in one of the poorest metro cities in the Northeast, compromised of 85% black people. The food was alright, and there were some fun markets, but overall nothing I would need. When you factor cost of living vs salary of the area, I found I would make more money staying where i am making 20K less, then i would, moving to Seattle. Also I personally prefer Texas over either the Northeast and the West, but I am annoyed that there's so many Cali plates. Just seeing them makes me annoyed.
