At one time around DC, for mostly US DoD and NASA work, there was a shortage of people good in math and software. So, once in two weeks I went on seven interviews and got five offers.

At one point I was making in annual salary six times what a high end new Camaro cost. Now that would be ballpark $240,000, and jobs were plentiful.

That's something like the situation when companies really want good employees.

Net, so far Silicon Valley doesn't really want good employees. Neither do NYC or Boston. Not yet.
