Liz Ryan и её Human Workplace читали.

Позиция для Хьюстона хороша, по крайней мере для тех, кто не попал на тучные банковские хлеба.
Дополнительно, хороший 401k match - 6% vested immediately, plus 2.5% profit sharing up to Social Security Wage ($118,500) and 5% over SSW deposited into your 401k and vested over 5 year period.
То есть на 5-ти летнем эмплойменте +8.5% к базе.
