-- Prague?
Prague?
Anyone here from CZ (I know a few are).
I am considering applying for a job in Prague or Brno and was wondering what people's opinions are of the country and those places specifically? I have asked a few people and they have nothing but good things to say about them, but most of them were Czech so they might be a bit biased. 
Then again if those Czech street porns are anything to go by it sounds bad ass...

I've been studying and working in Brno the last year, and I lived in Prague before so I can definitely tell you stuff about these places. Do you want to know something specifically?
I'm Czech so I can't give you the outsider perspective, which, I guess, would also be useful to you. I haven't talked to that many Americans who would be living here, but they mostly like it. I don't know, maybe they're just being polite
As I'm sure you know, Prague is the bigger of the two and if you're used to living in a city it's a much better choice. Actually, even if you're not, it still has a better infrastructure, more job opportunities, more entertainment, and ultimately more women. Brno is slightly cheaper (but not that much) and is basically a college town. The city centre is quite small, but you'll find all the basic stuff there. It's nice, just not that fancy.
What kind of job would you apply for?
I guess just what you mentioned about it, lifestyle, infrastructure, etc.
It'd be for computer programming, for gaming/simulation. It is the same company, but depending on what positions are open/what product I'd want to work on it'd be one or the other, though weighted towards Prague I guess because of the number of offices there, even though their head office is outside of Brno.
Well I guess you have to decide whether or not you want to live in a large city or not. Prague is very liveable, lots to see and do and drink 
Also you have to consider what kind of salary you will be on, Prague is just as expensive as any other capital city in Western Europe.
Brno is about a 3hr train ride from Prague, like Prague it attracts tourists, potentially because the Eurolines stop there with passengers, who are enroute to/from Vienna (which from memory is shorter distance than Prague). It is still a real 'lived-in' city which hasn't been spoiled - I would say the prices are about 10-20% cheaper than Prague, especially in the centre, and there is a lot to do and see.
Will you be renting, I had a few friends who had difficulty getting a rental property in Prague and it is not uncommon for them to ask for 6 months rent in advance. Some people will rent you studio apartments/rooms off the books which is a lot more expensive as you don't have to go through real estate agents.
Here's some links which compares the cost of living in both Brno: http://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-livin...layCurrency=USD
Prague: http://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-livin...lic&city=Prague
If you do make it to Czech, you have to visit Česk� Krumlov 
Little Caprice (the porn star) is from Czeck. I mean, isn't this reason enough to move there?
Prague is nice and it smells like McDonalds.
