That is cope. First of all, 100k salary is before taxes soooo. Yeah on site is fucking ridiculous, soul sucking like a fucking succubus but 450k is 450k. Now if you do stuff on the side 100k remote might be worthwhile but you can just alternate if you're smart: 1y on site 2y remote etc, or better, first 5-10ys of work on site then remote for the rest of your life.

>> No.56232072

If you're making 450k on site chances are you have the same flexibility of what you want/need to do vs making 100k remote

I have my own office as a healthcare provider making 250k. In my downtime between patients I play vidya on my gaming laptop and watch TV shows.

Yeah this is just a bad take. At 450k/year you can easily retire in under 10 years and then not have to deal with any work anymore. I make 150k right now in office and I wouldn’t go remote for 100k.

The new position was for 3 in office days and I would have to stay until 4:45PM. Absolutely wasn't worth it to me. But for 3x my salary I would definitely do it.

Super accurate. 1-day-on-site if you're the type to go crazy without human interaction. Otherwise 100% remote is superior and no amount of money can make on-site more attractive unless it's so much money that you only have to do it for a year and save up and then be set for life to never work again.

I guess I am the only one who doesn't hate my coworkers; I chose to go back to the office. I have my own space in the office and am far more productive there. My boss is pretty chill and hands off and I respect her quite a bit. Always is reasonable on disagreements, but also serious enough to get shit done in a corporation. We usually go out to eat as a small group and downtown Chicago has lots of cool places to eat for relatively cheap. Its also nice to see attractive women walking around in public every day.

I don't make $400k but I work Financial IT Security for a major investment bank so I get paid well.

That said I live 10 minute commute. Glad all you guys like working from home, but I got sick and tired of being at home all the time. I must be crazy.

I make about 150 fully remote in a middle cost of living state. I couldn't afford the same lifestyle even on 300k a year in NY or CA. Quality of life is worth something. 450k, eh maybe that's to the point I'd have to think on it some.

What's a 2500 sqft luxury apartment's with a 5 minute commute rent for in ((major)) metro 10k a month? 15? I don't know but it surely isn't 2500 dollars all in. Figure the first 175k just pays for taxes and buys you equivalent accommodations. That's just sort of stupid to do when you think about it.

Depends how old are you, whether you own a house, or you have kids. If you have kids, no amount of money can make up for the time you lost on commuting and being distracted by coworkers.
If you are young, do pic related for a decade and move inland for a remote job.
