I make 115k working remote in Austin. I could probably land 130-140 moving to an ACD role at another job, but staying remote. I have an opportunity that would fetch around 180k if I relocated to SF. Would you make that trade? I would probably prefer SF, but I'm not sure that I ever want to go back to the commuter lifestyle.

180 in SF it’s not a good idea unless you hate yourself.

$115K probably goes a lot farther in Austin than $180K in SF

Stay remote! I landed two back to back. I haven’t been hybrid in a year. I have a new contract freelance hybrid role. Remote right now I’m short listed & haven’t heard back. I’m enjoying my two weeks before heading back into an office. Def keep that remote role & the raise sounds awesome.

Is your place hiring?!? I’m in Austin as well.

Given the food and shelter inflation nationally combined with heavy taxes in California, Texas makes more sense.
