How do remote jobs work? I live in VHCOL and see a job in LCOL (remote available). Are they willing to pay VHCOL rate for remote workers? I just don't want to waste my time if they will pay less than my current TC. Thanks.

See the trick is you need to be mapped to a VHCOL and then work in a LCOL. Been doing it for a while now

Maybe take comp early in the process. Like during the first HR screen.

I'm located in NYC and had a firm based in Memphis, Tennessee contact me about a senior manager position. They were open to fully remote, but pay was a joke when I asked- 100k to 120k. I was earning more than that as a Senior associate

Oof, I wonder why I had so much anxiety seeing a ton of senior managers on LinkedIn when I was only an associate!

Probably not. I live in NYC and having trouble finding comp that would be comparable to NYC.

Yes, I just went through it with a company. They map you to a band in their comp structure, which will not be necessarily where you live but team based. Most likely they won’t be paying VHCOL rates but whatever they think the market rate is for this position. I was able to negotiate slightly, but it was still below what I wanted, so I ended up passing.
