Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

personally my offers have usually come in right around the midpoint and it's REALLY hard to get them to go to the upper end unless you're a unicorn candidate. sometimes the top of the range is the level cap, meaning you will not get a raise unless you are promoted. so if the midpoint is 20% of what you're currently making, no, i think it's highly unrealistic.
Should have asked when interviewed
I’d check into other opportunities that will fall closer to what you require. As the other poster noted, if the middle of the range is too low it is highly unlikely they’ll move much higher than that. In my experience, landing towards the midrange is more common and you’ll more than likely leave for somewhere else long before even getting close to the high end of the range. Companies nowadays like to keep their doors revolving to avoid developing talent; they just want to hire people with the skills they want right away.
I think it’s reasonable. Rates are based on skills too not just area
Totally realistic, especially if you bring more experience or skills than the role requires. I live in a LCOL area too, and I always aim for the top of the band. Just back it up with results and market data. The worst they’ll say is no, but it sets the bar.
