Furniture warranty company ProtectAll moved its headquarters from Florida to North Richland Hills, with around 200 jobs. The Business Journal talked to an executive about how they decided to move here.
Behind the move: Deep talent pool won North Texas this HQ move over Georgia, Florida and Nevada
Was there an article? I just found one sentence and page upon page of ads and click bait.
As long as it isn't those car warranty folks that keep calling my cell phone, then I am ok.
I question the necessity of relocating a company of this size cross country. That move must send an incredibly confusing message to the employees when ownership or senior leadership decide to move the organization out-of-state and then tell you "you're either on the bus or not." What about your house, schools, kids, family and everything else keeping you grounded back at home? Equally confusing is calculating a move hoping your company will survive based on a given talent pool. If you can sacrifice 60-70% of your loyal employees and just rehire their replacements in a new market, that to me sounds pretty cut throat. If your business is struggling that much where you left, perhaps it's more about your business model than the place where you locate the business.
