Palantir's had a large, well-appointed, and almost entirely empty office on Blake Street in Denver for years, while hiring in Palo Alto has slowed to a crawl, compared to its offices in New York and London. Palo Alto isn't in proximity to any of Palantir's major clients, not since Fox poached one of Palantir's senior biz dev leads to be their CISO and then fired Palantir as a vendor.

A little curious what's going to happen to the legacy Gotham product, which is the bread and butter of their government work and is an insane ball of spaghetti code that runs on the shoulders of a few veeery long-tenured employees who all have Bay Area houses and kids now.

Ultimately, this is just admitting something that's been a reality for years. For all their claims to their employees that "Palo Alto will always be our home," this is just another example of Palantir's motto of "strong opinions, weakly held."
