Ah yes, that was not a great year to jump in, since that was peak-ish.

I've always kept an eye on the Chicago tech sector (know a few people from college who are big on the whole "built in Chicago" train) because I feel like I'll eventually want to go back, but it feels like so much of it is Fintech which has never really appealed to me.

If my current company ever opens a Chicago office I'd probably pursue it.

Some of it is, but it’s really a hodgepodge. I’m in marketing tech, there’s some insurance, some food, Groupon, Uptake, consultants, and Fortune 500 companies.

None of it is either bleeding edge or hypergrowth territory, which may or may not be what the new college grads are looking for.
