Can’t speculate as to why Mercedes-Benz USA is choosing to move from Montvale, NJ to Atlanta. However, going back about 25 years, UPS with their corporate headquarters in Greenwich, CT ... not far from Montvale, NJ, moved to Atlanta. Primary reason, UPS in their development plan for training promising young executives advancing thru the ranks required a few years at corporate headquarters in Greenwich. Problem ... young executives couldn’t afford anything close to Greenwich ... meaning long commutes. This became an issue when many promising executives declined the promotion to corporate, electing to stay in place, or decided to leave the company.
Another generation or two this, and the illegals will be moving into the low level executive/management positions, and in fact have been for many years.
Ya notice the farmers in CA and elsewhere used to have an endless supply of illegals?...Now their hurting for stoop labor in the fields....The illegals by the millions now jam all of our population centers...Not a farm field in sight....
The employers love it.
They are middle America’s replacements.
