Microsoft to hire in Lehi
20 comments | Read story
While Microsoft has made over 10,000 millionaires because they went public, WordPerfect made 5.
How appropriate this all happened today at Thanksgiving Point...to remind everyone of the greed.
No one wants to relocate to Utah let alone Lehi.
Isn't that why Intel moved out of Utah because no one wanted to come to Utah?
P.S. You're free to start your own software company at any time and reap the rewards for being a founder.
People are flocking to Utah in droves.
Sorry for squashing the troll attempt.
Microsoft's had a place in Draper since last year. It's my understanding that this office park is the only LEED office park in the state, which was desirable to MS. Plus, it's on the border of two counties that have highly-skilled engineers and software designers.
Talk about a bitter audience, this is a good announcement
And to Why Lehi?, hey Lehi is a great place. Lehi is also at the center of the area between the Y and the U, hence its strategically favorable location. Lehi also - if all their housing spaces are occupied, as well based on the number of building permits issued - will have been the biggest city in Utah - population wise (no pun intended)...hahahaaa
There aren't any bars in Lehi, not to mention you can't buy beer there on the sabbath, and the green fees to play at Thanksgiving Point are horrendous.
Remember when Thanksgiving point was going to be a big park open to everyone, as a thank you to Utah?
This is the place to do business.
- Lower taxes. California is going through an economic and financial meltdown beyond imagination. Companies are preparing or have exited the state because of the "welfare" climate. Taxes are going up to pay for the years of mismanagement.
- Leadership. No confidence in political leaders. Who wants to pay for incompetency?
- Unemployment. The numbers (10.5%+) speak for themselves. Those with no jobs are leaving and those with jobs are trying to exit before their net worth deteriorates more. Jobs won't be coming back soon because companies are leaving for the reasons above.
- Education. The California school system is broken. Teachers are being fired and resources are cut because of fiscal mismanagement. One of the highest dropout rates in the country.
- Like crowds?? Come to Cali. Quality of life is bye bye.
- Standard of living. Going down.
- Crime. Going up. Better have a good job and good pay to live in a secure area.
So, for those that don't "get it", maybe now you "got it". Try living here, "You'll be baaack."
