RML is correct, a Berkeley degree does not put you at any disadvantage in applying to some big name companies in the east. It is a highly respectable degree. It will likely be less known by the average joe on the street, however, and the “star power” of Berkeley is still highest in California. Which is the same for basically every other university with the exception of HYP, where “star power” is strongest in its home area.
