BPM’s Sandy Murray Quoted in Yahoo! Finance

The California business exodus has made headlines recently, as remote work has freed up the workforce to work from anywhere and cost of living continues to be an issue in the Golden State.  

But are as many people and as many businesses leaving California, as these headlines may insinuate? 

BPM’s Sandy Murray is quoted in a recent Yahoo! Finance article on the topic.  

“More people have left in the past six months than ever in my career,” he said. “It’s always been a theoretical conversation for clients—should I break domicile? Now it’s become an actionable conversation. I see a snowball effect. When one guy moves and talks about it, then I get a call from three colleagues at the same company. If only a small percentage of those folks move, it’s a huge tax base that moves.”
