Software Development Engineer
Work-life balance, opportunity to work on a breadth of technologies and teams, multicultural environment, good health benefits, flexible working hours. Redmond and the surrounding areas have good schools, and they are not as expensive as California.
Competitive work, environment, and politics greatly vary between team to team, so best of luck in landing in the right team.
Shrink the size of the company. Deal harshly with leads/managers promoting a political environment, an "us vs. them" mentality among teams.
