Hi guys,
Need help,I am joining VMware Banglore on 27th June. During interview I told them I need wfh. They said it wil be wfh this entire year. Only mistake I did was i didn't permanent wfh. I took for granted like once I join i can opt for it ( as my VMware friends had said we can opt for it)
Now the offices have started, I am scared if they call me to office , I have 14months son, not willing to leave him n go for office.
So if I ask manager to give me permanent wfh will they agree ?

Depends on:
- where you work (commute time, remote)
- cost of living In your city
- what benefits you get (healthcare premiums, HSA contributions, family leave, health subsidy, etc)
- what company it's at (some companies I've heard have terrible and toxic workplaces, vs a chill team at another company)
- what retirement benefits you get (401k match, pension, etc.)
- your current situation ( how much you make and how happy you are with that #, how you like your manager and coworkers, if you have dependants)
Your compensation is more than just the number on the page, and you should think about it as the whole picture as you could be missing out on some factors that will greatly impact your long-term lifestyle.
Based on #s alone and knowing nothing else 130K is a good amount and more than what most Americans make but if you are doing technical/tech adjacent work it's probably on the mid to lower end for your yoe and security clearance.

Think its low - TS clearance should bring it a bigger check
