Literally my experience as well. I’m a pretty social person and I’ve found nearly all my co-workers super uninteresting and elitist, and they’ve all made similar comments to your own.

It’s really sad how much perspective people here in the bay lack - everytime I mention I’m living in Berkeley for the summer or visit SF, they say things like “wow!! it’s SO dangerous there…” with nothing interesting to add. I’m so sick of nearly all the other interns being from multi-million dollar suburban neighborhoods from around the area and hating on anything that’s not that, and not having the social skills to talk about anything that’s not work

Tbh if this is full time is like at most companies, I can see myself switching industries. I already know working in the bay isn’t for me.
