Yes

Maybe if barely. I moved from a medium COL to one with a HCOL and I was told they did the research and it’s barely any different. My rent nearly doubled and Starbucks costs 25% more here. Fortunately my new team caught me up with a mid year but I was pissed. Bay Area cost of living is off the charts compared to a second tier city.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
