Tech elites leaving San Francisco threaten Silicon Valley's supremacy

Former Texan here! You will not get RSU's or bonuses as an engineer in Texas. You will get cash and insurance. If you doubt me, feel free to go on an interview and ask about those things!

I can tell you there's a reason I left Texas and it's because cash doesn't do to your savings what RSU's and bonuses will.

I'm an engineer in Austin. We definitely get bonuses and I have RSUs at my current company.

It's good to hear that's changed. When I was in Dallas that was certainly not the case.

Companies here in Ohio do both RSU and bonuses. Sometimes one or the other, sometimes a mix as part of total compensation.
