As noted by a fellow poster, tech development jobs are everywhere.

However, those OTHER IT jobs are everywhere as well - lots and lots of them. Just about every nontrivially-sized company out there has internal networks, servers, gajillions of workstations, connections to external networks etc ad nauseum.

Lots of nondevelopment IT jobs go hand in hand with that.

Was the 'seriously??' really necessary? It was an honest question. Not everyone has heard of the tech corridor.

You are correct, that was unnecessary. I erroneously thought the OP was a local.

Don't worry, Ed Snowden got one and lived with a stripper and was a high school dropout.

The prospects are really only good if you have clearance for tech jobs and this is like 75% of the ads.
