My husband and I want to buy a house in and move to another state (we currently live in NYC). We’d still be within a close enough distance to occasionally commute (1 or 2x/week) but want to mostly work remote. Do you think that’s a reality after this pandemic has proven the wfh model works well in our industry?

My husband and I have discussed this as well. We both believe the model will change. Not sure id be willing to uproot everything before that that is confirmed. But I do think, even in this industry, 2-3 days a week in the office will be totally reasonable.

Honestly, nope - I think it's a risky assumption to plan to wfh that much, while maintaining a job in NYC. There's no guarantees that, when a vaccine is available, the Coronavirus is under control and we are truly in the New Normal, companies will offer or function with anything approaching this level of remote working.

If you can and want to do it irrespective of maintaining a NYC job, then that changes things. And/or if you're thinking and planning only in the immediate term.

I really think it is a possibility. I know Omnicomm is for example debating this idea. Letting ppl work from home more has so many benefits it’s crazy not to, especially after it’s proven to work well.

The top and the best offer I have is from a service based organization of almost 100% hike.
Now my company wants to retain me & offering me even higher. What should I do?
