Are supply chain roles mostly remote?

It depends on what area you're in. If you're working on an administrative role, remote could be an option. But if your job requires you to travel to client facilities, inspecting the quality of the goods delivered, or you're driving one of the trucks, then definitely not remote.

In my case this is the case, but I assume that it depends on each company and the work performed by each one.

Most of the roles can be done remotely, but the logistics work needs more presence in the office due to time and coordination issues.

I'm in salary negotiations for a great role, but there's a small gap (~$10k) to even match my old salary. They have most of the obvious benefits like unlim. vacation, low healthcare premiums, 401k matching, permanent WFH, etc.

Right now, severance pkg. and a more senior title are most important. Has anyone negotiated a title bump? Outcome?

Are there additional benefits I should also consider?
