You would take a pay cut and there are many in Atlanta who would still complain that you are making too much and be thinking about how they could move your job to a low cost country. I've had conversations with startups "leaders" in Atlanta where they have expressed this sentiment.

hey lance! ha

I left ATL for SF last year and I had many similar conversations while I lived there.

ATL Founder > What do you mean you are charging $100/hr? I can pay 5 shitty developers in India for that price.

SF Founder > We are on a pretty tight budget. The best we can offer you is $140k/yr + 0.7% equity.

yup, seen the same thing!
You are all over this thread shitting on everything Atlanta. Sounds like you just didn't get hired at a place you like and are bitter. That place made the right choice.
It sounds like this is a throwaway troll account.
I'll stick to the valley and just have roommates then.
