Dilemma… I left my old company 4 months ago. Today, they’ve reached out to me to ask me to come back at a higher role, Operations Manager. I would’ve jumped on this opportunity if they asked me before. However, this role would be hybrid (2x in office) and come along with more responsibilities and hours than my current WFH role which is very chill. The pay is only 15% more than I currently make. Any thoughts?

I would negotiate for a higher amount. If they called you, that means you have all the power here. Go back with a counter offer.

Always put your worth first. How much do you think they should pay you to come back, afford to travel to the office and to pick up more work? I personally would come back with an offer of at least 25% to 30%. They know you and they are asking you to come back, clearly you are valuable to the company.
