What percentage pay cut would you take for industry wfh job? Limited growth opportunity but considering because of young family. Independent at the moment.

25 percent paycut

Any way to stay independent but work locally and not travel? Save the money for in between contracts to smooth out cash flow. Otherwise, you have to weigh how much you need to live & the cost of giving up pay. Personally if it is a remote job 100%, worth a lot more than having to switch client sites every contract.

tks no local opportunities

I took a 20% cut on base. 35% if you consider bonus. But I think my stress levels are way down. And I like the stability of knowing I’ll be home each night. I do have a good mix of being able to work from home and having an office to go to. Not sure I’d be able to handle 100% one or the other.

Do what’s right for your family. I need to work another 20-25 years either way and the difference in pay wasn’t going to change the game for me in the years that matter - i.e. right now while my family is growing.

I am in the final steps of the interview process for an in-house position. I mentioned to the recruiter that I had unvested equity I would be leaving on the table. She said the company would take this into account and make me whole. She later asked for proof of the equity in the form of my account statement and balance, which I provided. I have not yet received an offer. Is it typical for companies to ask for this documentation if they don't intend to make the candidate an offer?

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job. I just found out a co-worker had a remote position created for them, without a job posting, without an interview and without the experience required (normally a license or certification would be mandatory). I understand life isn’t fair but is there an ethical problem with this?
