Austin was suppose to be the next silicone valley. lol !!

Many companies made Austin as HQ and then moved out of state. State policies are extreme right, many moved out.

Billionaires are settling there to avoid taxes.

AI and NVidia made silicone valley center of universe! No one can beat the silicone valley !!

It’s very slightly below average.

I am in Austin. I, along with most others I have worked with here, I would classify as WFH. There are offices here, but I don't know who goes into them, and afaik some of the folks that do, are technically WFH.

Since many are WFH, the teams people work on are distributed and our presence in Austin is incidental.

With respect to salary, this is still Cisco. My salary is average. Nothing more. I get my advantage back in reduced hours. This is the same story for Cisco employees anywhere; you find some way of compensating for the lack of high comp.
