This group really makes me appreciate my situation. I am fully remote at a remote first employer who does not care where where I work as long as it doesn't affect my residency and pay in the territory I was hired. (ie working in Costa Rica and Mexico 6 months but need to be back in Canada ever so often to maintain citizenship status)

I have an offer at faang (400k +rsu), also fully remote but this group really makes me feel it's a mistake to leave.

Any faangs fully remote up for a chat?

For real! You’ve really talked up the current gig well.

That’s a great offer! Fully remote at FAANG sounds like it’s becoming harder to come by given the push for back to office. And $400k base + bonus (?) is very high.

Why do you feel like it’s a mistake to leave?

Seriously

Well I currently make 300 and rsus at a recent IPOs firm. Our stock is low key down but pleh. The faang is going to split soon so their rsus value could skyrocket. The base pay difference in salary is 3 or so k a month.

The reason I'm hesitant is I hear work life balance is hell at the faang, the average tenure is under 3 years so Id get less rsus than I do now and if I leave before year four over 3 years it's a pay cut actually.

Also I'd be tbe only remote l7 in my territory and my entire team values in office communication. It's very hard to be successful as a remote worker in those situations. I almost think they want to onboard me, have me fail and pip out as proof to their team remote doesn't work. Originally the role was in office but this faang doesn't alter compensation per geographic area so we all settled on remote as opposed to higher salary but it already feels like they aren't happy.

All that money though ugh

That is so tough. Honestly, I try to always listen to my gut.If you are feeling like it is a mistake, I would listen to that

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.
Sidenote: recruiters, you can see on my LI profile that I'm remote. In the "What jobs are you interested in" field you can see I'm only interested in remote roles.
So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?

Hello Sharks,

I have been working for a Jaipur based Digital Marketing Agency for 2.5 years now. Overall I have 5 YoE in the industry.

I tired to switch the company for Growth & Learning, Got 60k + WFH offer. My current company matched the offer (60k + WFH). The company helped me a lot in my bad times (Covid, Mom's illness, my operation etc).
Can I think of switching the company after 6 months and expect 90k-100 from the next company?
