Re: Moving to the Cities!
We're currently hiring for retail sales if that would interest you, we will also be looking for technicians once we move into our new facility. We're located in Plymouth now, but will be relocating to Cottage Grove (just south of Woodbury) end of summer / early fall

Re: Moving to the Cities!
Welcome! Woodbury is a nice area and not too far from me.
Traffic can suck but if you can time your start times early enough or a little bit later than normal it doesn't suck that bad.
Good luck on the job search!

Re: Moving to the Cities!
Yeah, woodbury is pretty horrible for traffic, just 1 main road there and it gets packed from all the people coming over from wisconsin. I used to live there. Nice/rich area and people can be a bit snobby, but was nice overall.

Purchase agreement will be signed this week, but there is a substantial build out involved as the building as it sits is just a shell. I'm hoping to move in August or September.

Re: Moving to the Cities!
I work right by the dealerships in Brooklyn Park, traffic is not an issue whatsoever. Places to move nearby would be northern BP, Champlin, Maple Grove or Plymouth. Albertville is a ways away and traffic can suck coming down 94 in the mornings. Woodbury is nice, but you couldn't pay me to live way the hell over there, the west side is where it's at.

Re: Moving to the Cities!
Thanks for checking Bobby. Maybe things will change by June. I haven't looked REAL hard since the move is still 3 months away and people aren't looking to hire that far out.

Re: Moving to the Cities!
Ok so we are moving sooner than first thought. Can anyone that lives in woodbury tell me how traffic is going to say eagan or Brooklyn park in the morning. Time wise?

Re: Moving to the Cities!
For the most part the Twin Cities does not wake up until 7:30 or so, if you start before that your commute is substantially shorter than after.

Woodbury to Eagan, 5-10 minutes. Woodbury to Brooklyn Park, 45-50 min.

Re: Moving to the Cities!
Yeah I would not want a daily commute between BP and Woodbury. 694 east is not fun during post-work rush hour once you hit the Shoreview area.

Any way to avoid this? Alternate route. My hours may be 10-6 so not sure on how bad traffic is then.
