editor Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 This is the second large company to leave Sugar Land recently. At least that I can remember. I wonder if there's been more. And why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually a better deal on rent. On the cynical side, another reason is proximity to the CEO's home. But, the Noble CEO lives in River Oaks, and I doubt that CityWest is easier to get to than Sugar Land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The memo stated it was "greener" that way. Sure, for him. He moved the office from a location which was two blocks from a passenger rail line that most of the other 30-something employees used. Just one way that was a shitty company. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
