Well there have been plenty of articles published since Facebook said they'd be adjusting salaries based on your city's cost of living if people choose to work from home discussing this very thing.
The consensus seems to be that in the future, salaries will be adjusted based on your cost of living. Of course that's easy to say for someone like Facebook who will relish not having to pay Bay area salaries. Their revenue will stay the same and they'll get to pay all their employees way less. But does it work the other way around, if one were to live in an area with a higher col? Something tells me "Fuck no! Why would you even ask that?!".
I bet you'd have better luck if you were switching companies. But as it is, you're probably shit out of luck and might be better off finding work in your current city in the future to get that salary bumped up.
Well that's great to hear. Glad they're being fair. But then again, it's Facebook. It probably has the illusion of fair but they can afford to because they're still coming out ahead as a majority opt for cheaper places to live.
If you're a company in Idaho and your employees wanted to move to NYC, you'd struggle to all of a sudden pay NYC salaries. I can't see this working out for anyone but companies that are already HQ'd in high COL areas.
That’s gonna be a no, dawg. You asked for the move and they’re allowing it, so there’s no way they’re also going to boost your salary because you chose to move to a HCOL area.

Is this a different country or the same country?
Can they reduce your salary when you choose to move to a lower cost of living area?
Facebook.
What kinda backwards thinking is that
I'm going to go against the grain and say they might adjust it if your current salary is well below the rest of the office in the higher CoL city...but don't expect to get rich off that bump
Oops I forgot to mention- I’ll likely be switching clients so I’ll be under the higher COL city’s client- same title though. But same holding company so I still think they won’t bump the salary.
Yeah following up this did not happen.
