So little chatter on the subject lately...
The company culture has changed immensely over the years

How many will voluntarily move from SR to Houston?
Has to be less than 10% right? Only upside is the lack of state income tax and lower COL. Not worth it for many to uproot their families for what most will see as a lower quality of life (weather, outdoor options, nearby places for day trips, etc.). — read more
