You would think a video development company is going to need electricity.
With the best workers wanting remote work, not sure what they expect to get from opening an office in Austin. Traffic is terrible, office space costs a ton, and Noone will apply to work in their office.
If I had to guess, tax breaks.
They’ll get enough young people who are enchanted by the ideas of living in a “hip” city and/or making video games
Aren't taxes and benefits better for companies in Texas?
