Comment on How many people actually want fully on-site IT jobs?

I’d consider one, but it’d have to pay considerably more. Like, 50% or more above what I’d otherwise expect for a fully remote position, and it would have to be an easy commute.

In most cases it’s adding 20-30% to the length of the work day when the commute is included, plus costs of transportation itself. Plus the general inconvenience and the fact that it’s almost always going to mean a more toxic culture. But if the pay and benefits were absolutely fantastic, I’d consider it, at least short-term.

And the commute is considered working hours. An hour commute means I’m in the office 9-3. With a lunch break.

  I think in Germany that’s part of the labour code: the clock runs the entirety of the time you’ve left the house on their instruction.

    Doesn’t that encourage urban sprawl?

Another user was demanding 4x salary for in office, I would consider a 20% pay bump per in office day a reasonable request that likely results in a remote contract. It’s essentially saying it will cost you double to make me come in for that day.
