Anyone live or spend a lot of time there?  Pros/cons?  Would you move there for a big promotion?

It's a very beautiful city/valley. Plus you will have great Mormon stories to share with your friends on goEMAW. Definitely do it.

Mormons are fantastic coworkers, fwiw.

Not anymore than the field, IMO.

Anyway, my point was going to be that office politics can be a bitch in SLC if you are or aren't Mormon.  Like it's better to be one or the other depending on where you work.  At least in most places people don't care.

Not Mormon, have worked with a few.  Some good, some bad.  That part really isn't a big deal to me.

SLC seems like a fine place to move to if you have a family but not so much if a single guy.

Milwaukee is better than Kansas City, but Kansas City is better than Dallas, IMO.

Spent 3 days there about 7 years ago, and the only city I've been to that I would consider more beautiful is Sydney Australia.
