Your move Bungie. I hope my requirement to work remotely isn't a deal breaker. Seattle area just sucks, that's all. Still haven't heard back about the Eververse job either.

I'd apply if it didn't mean moving back to Seattle. The studio itself is nice, but Bellevue is crushingly depressing, and it's a long bus ride across the lake if you live in Seattle proper.

How long are we talking?

My first job in games required a two-hour commute by bus, each way.

Where I work now, I've managed to get it down to a little less than an hour.

From my house, it's a 45 minute commute (two buses) to Bungie's main offices. (It's about the same, coming back.)

Used to be much longer - routes were such that you really needed to head into downtown Seattle first, then back out. Maybe 90 mins.

Yeah, when I was there last, I learned quick that you need to set out a lot earlier due to how Seattle and it's suburbs are arranged.
