If you’ve just moved to Sydney on a Working Holiday Visa or if you’re migrating permanently, choosing a place to work is a hard decision to make. There’s just so much to consider. Commute time, cost of living, transport, gym’s but what are the top reasons?

Today I spent the day with the energetic and talented people of the people2people Parramatta office, which services all our clients in Western Sydney. The team is very passionate about their patch, so I thought I would ask them why it’s better to be working in Parramatta and not in Sydney’s CBD. Here are their top 18 reasons!

2. Authentic food – special mention El Jannah chicken!
3. Developing and growing. There is an energy to Parramatta and it’s clear that its Sydney’s 2^ndCBD
