You can find jobs that are local travel only. My former job had local account managers if you wanted pure sales, or pre-sales architects if you wanted to stay semi technical. I worked with a technology VAR. Most of the base salaries were semi decent but the big variable was the sales commission. But it also came with some big numbers. The AM I worked with the most while I was there was supposed to bring in around $6M minimum annually. I don't know about the other AMs.

Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

Living in Van. Previously lived in Toronto. Obviously rent prices are high as is cost of living. Generally go out and spend more often living in a city.

A commute to Vancouver 1-2 times a month needs to be possible (his job). That can be a flight if it’s not crazy. Thoughts? Recommendations?

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits.

I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?
