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.
Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more? I’m sure most salary conversations end in negotiation anyways?

Stay remote, get a second remote job, work them both.
Define low pay

I lean towards keeping remote. The other job seems high risk and high stress. What’s your price to do that? Could you find out more to help your decision?
You can also take the offer to your manager or HR contact, say you were sought out for the role and entertained the interview, but want to review your comp.
Say you want to stay with the business, but there is a clear disparity between market value and your current compensation (come armed with other examples of this too), and you're looking for fair compensation.
This often helps get what you want in the short term, but may put you in a position where during lay-offs you're higher on the list. You're got nothing to lose in asking. Worse case scenario you have a job offering 50% more that you can take, if you're hungry to learn and earn - take the offer and don't look back.
I'm with you, I work remote and wouldn't trade it for less than 50/60% more. But it is a tough job market, and job security is another consideration - more money is great, but not if they do layoffs in 3 months. Do want you feel is best for your career but also consider how the job will impact work/life balance.
I’d stay at the remote. But it depends on your goals.
It's a very personal thing. As long as I was comfortably affording a decent quality of life, I would stick with the low-stress remote job. I want to be enjoying life in the present, not making bank at the expense of everything so I have a little extra cash when I hit 65.
How old are you? 20s take it and lock in higher salary then pivot. 30s+ coast if you can afford the lifestyle.
