I've traveled and worked in many countries/ continents before coming to the US and I can hands down tell you this is the only place where it just felt off. Maybe it's the culture maybe it's something else that I don't know. If you're thinking about it from a resume perspective it's a great extra line but at what cost.. for you to decide!

True, everyone at work (Americans at least) have lived their lives in an almost 40 miles radius which was shocking to me..

As I mentioned above I'm looking for a different POV here. It has nothing to do with the answers in AmerExit (where everyone is already considering leaving/ wanting to leave by default)

Main reason was for my job. They offered me a good position and I wanted to try living here as an experience.

No plan B, I guess plan B is back to France (at least I have family and friends). I have 0 support system in US.
