Curious how much i can ask for when starting 100%WFH. I used to hybrid 3times a week and recently accepted new offer for 100%remote. What would be things I should ask for?? I switched to ux from consulting and unsure till what point is appropriate to ask for..

Does remote mean you can work from anywhere (I interviewed for a role where remote meant relocating near a headquarter). I’d make sure you are aware of their expectations.

Do you know if their compensation is dependent on your location or what their pay structure is? Some companies pay a general salary regardless of location and others do it based on market average in your area.

Hm yeah I would ask if they didn’t already mention them since you will be remote. Sometimes they provide stipend so you can set yourself up, other times all they’ll provide is a company laptop.

e: this should be part of the onboarding

Every company is different, but most offer some type of equipment and/or stipend to cover home office expenses. I'd definitely ask about what they offer in terms of that. Congrats!

Are starting and transitioning eventually?

Ask for the same amount as non-WFH. You still have value no matter what your location is.

I agree, working remote doesn't mean the money should decrease!

- getting on local FB groups
- local schools if there are any
- physical posters
- newspaper/old media (not great)

Hey! My company is giving me a new title (previously: Senior PMM, new: Global Lead of product marketing). The roles are very similar with no material change of responsibilities. it’s the result of a re-org. Also, I’ve been deemed a high performer and approaching my 1 yr review.

In any case, as I’m waiting on the official letter, they have been very vague that they’re will be a compensation increase. In fact, this hasn’t been presented as a promotion. How would you approach this conversation?
