A decade ago, a lot of folks would probably seriously consider this. Austin is a rad town and cost of living is cheaper than San Diego. Now moving to Texas could put you at significant risk if you’re a woman.
Apple, a company that likes to value diversity and inclusion, is apparently fine with putting its female employees in harm’s way for a tax break.
Of all the shit Apple has done, this is particularly disturbing.
Edit: Took a few more minutes to look into this, and it appears that Apple covers travel and medical expenses for women that have to travel out of state for care. Although, forcing someone into that position to keep their job is pretty douchey.

Bullshit.
They don’t give a shit.
It’s something of importance to their target demographic, so they play into it.
Austin isn’t even that much cheaper and property tax in TX is heinous compared to CA.
Not cheaper at all, actually. They only discuss income tax when folks claim that.
