This is the future of how every white collar job should be.
I’m a big work from homer, but my firm is being a real dick about it. I’ve realized I may lose this battle with them, but I’m convinced my kindred spirits and I will win the WFH war.
Down with the bourgeoisie 🤪

This may actually raise wages in places like India and the Philippines if they can produce the needed talent.

I don't feel like my role can be easily outsourced to India. It's hard enough finding somebody to do what I can do in the US. If it were easier to find, I wouldn't be paid as much as I am.

Airbnb’s entire value prop spikes if people can work remotely en masse. This is more of a strategic decision to benefit the long term growth of the enterprise than anything else.

Not at all, but to put something in perspective, I was going to put 3.5% down on a 200K condo in Dallas, and the payment with property tax, not including COA fees would’ve been 2,000 PM. Which when you consider homes in the area are starting 400-500K for a basic home it suddenly seems really expensive. For 2,000 a month, I’ll just stay on in my liberal east coast bubble😂

Chase and Bank of America have a number one priority of checking daily badge swipes and reports go directly to leadership. Companies that decide to offer remote options will have a pretty good competitive advantage. Unless the companies choose to hire the cheapest, most undisciplined of employees, then you probably need to badge swipe track.

I definitely think being remote first is the future of tech, universal comp I’m not totally sure. Coinbase has tiers (which I hate) but it does feel like most startups are offering fully remote with pay universal regardless of location.

I can’t really see a company going back from this once they announce it (would be a revolt), so if you believe that those startups are the future of tech, it just makes logical sense that that model is also the future.

I’m also in a T3 and the annoying thing is it doesn’t seem fair at all how the Geos were chosen. Austin is a T3 city, but anywhere within 100 miles of Seattle is T1, and Chicago (cheaper than Austin) is T2. We need more cities in the T2 group for sure.

Yes.

I hope so. Looking to leave NA and this would be a big help

I feel a little crazy saying this, but more money at this point doesn’t resonate.

That’s totally privilege talking, but I just can’t imagine chasing extra money in PE or lateraling just for the money. No virtue signaling here at all. I actually worry on some level that I’m somehow a moron for not giving a thought to maximizing earnings.
