I am like many others here surprised that this is in Camrose, Alberta. I didn't think big American companies would open an office here outside of the typical tech hubs (Vancouver, Toronto, Waterloo, and Montreal).

You will find a handful of people who either relocated during the last year or were hired there.

This includes people like Jeff Davey, Steven Bromling, Tony Gong, Derek Hausauer and Lucas Wagner who are brilliant.

That is nice. I think many inside Canada wouldn't mind relocating for a role like this, but I doubt someone would be willing to trade California's winter for Alberta's, regardless of the job.

I was just down around the LA area, and I'll gladly take -40 winters for the rest of my life than deal with that traffic and air pollution.

That's why they invented Santa Monica.

Spend a year away in the mountains or somewhere with fresh air, then come back.

You'll be shocked.

Population (2016) 18,742. Wow, Camrose is a really surprising location
