Has anyone had to move for a remote job? What was your experience? I moved where our HQ was, but it has felt pointless since we never go to the office, maybe twice in 3 years. I’m wondering if it’s even worth living in a city if a job isn’t tying you to it.

Was it mandatory to move? Do you like the location? I would for sure ask about moving to your desired location if you can fly in once a quarter or so whatever management deems as necessary.

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office.
