A, for sure!

Too much travel for B, plus unlimited PTO is a scam. Can never take it off because of constant work overload, that’s why they offer it.

100% remote saves you time, money, sanity.

My predicament. I’m 90% confident in getting an offer from both. But option A will be love most likely 3 weeks faster than option B. But option A has much higher earnings potential

Option A for sure. Traveling 50% will be very tiring. Remote work FTW! I’m also seeking new opportunities, let me know if you’re ok referring :)

It really depends on the travel thing - or would for me. Other than that, I'm a big fan of cash - so I would take the higher salary. What is the stock worth for each of these? And what are the triggers for bonus? Is it your performance or the company's performance as well. The latter seems to be great during Town Hall Meetings then awful during compensation. I also love the unlimited PTO of Option B.

like

Unless you love business travel, I would definitely go with option A.

Op A. 50% travel will creep to 75% and getting PTO will depend on when you get projects finished.

If you have any relationships at all. 50% travel will wear you down And destroy them in the long run. It can easily bloom into 6-70% OTR. Nothing like fully remote if you’re good and conscientious.

smart

Yeah that’s fair. When I started in tech consulting we were traveling every single Monday-Thursday. It was BRUTAL. been more or less 90% remote ever since covid. From what I heard from a friend that’s been on a team in the org at option B for a few years it is pretty close to 50%. BUT the 50% is either customer travel or at a company office. So if his customer isn’t requiring travel he’ll go to an office 2-3 days out of the week

Option A - no travel and 100% remote

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!
