I mean y’all can both be right in the correct context. Not every job or culture functions that well remotely. In my old job I was able to work remote, but I just got a raise and promotion this past year more or less because I ‘am around’. Obviously there’s a little more to it, but I was building relationships at the plant, helping out troubleshooting with things outside of my scope, and just giving the plant a feeling that engineering cares about what’s going on. That would not have happened if I stayed remote.

Reply to comment by CCJonesy in I make 42k and I work from home 4 out of 5 days a week. I signed a 60k offer onsite 23 miles there and back 45 min, 45 min back. Does this make any sense? by RemarkableCell1859
