The Best/ Worst U.S. Cities to Work in IT

Post by Libra Monkee »

Looks like I'm stuck in DC for a while.
New York City and Washington, D.C. are among the areas having the most IT jobs available. Check out the list of cities looking for IT professionals along with a few reasons why IT pros might want to search for work there.
Would you like to know more?
"IT workers have their choice of many great US cities for work and play (Atlanta, Chicago, Seattle), but what are the cities that you probably should avoid? Here's a very unscientific, highly subjective and unapologetically snarky list of our least favorite US tech job locales."
Would you like to know more?


Might be good to run back to Philly though.

I love the pics they chose for the worst cities :lol:

The list of best cities didn't hold any surprises near the top.. but some of the others did catch me a little off guard.

So the only reason they could give for Syracuse as a "worst" city is that it snows there. Hmph! List must've been made by a bunch of pansy Southerns if you ask me. :censor: :canada:

I agree... snow is a plus, not a minus. :)
