Working in Los Angeles
Los Angeles is the second largest city in the largest economy in the world. It is famous for entertainment industry, particularly film, but also for television, fashion, and advertising. Besides more glamorous industries the city is a hub for biotechnology, aerospace, healthcare, petroleum, tourism and the headquarters of many trans-national companies. Each of these pulls expats from around the world. There are many ties to overseas companies, particularly in Asia.Business culture is a bit more laid back than on the east coast. This includes more casual clothing and, in edgy tech companies, creative company perks. Working hours are usually from 8am or 9am to 5pm and many business meetings are conducted over lunch.
