Employers offering remote and hybrid work options hire new talent more quickly than companies making employees to return to the office.

    Commuting is also a nightmare. Thats 1-2 hours a day of slog to get to an arbitrary location to do a job that I could do at home. Combine this with school drop offs and pick ups and the ability to do life admin during the week instead of cramming it all on a Saturday with everyone else like pre COVID and WFH is a winner.

      7 hours a week and I didn’t even have that bad of a drive.

      $50 in gas. $50 in food minimum. That’s happiness lost + costs increased.

      I had 2 offers and one was not only a 15k bump vs the other, but the lower one was in the office 2 days a week. That was a pretty easy decision

      Also for people that can’t WFH. I’m stuck in a traffic jam every day because of office workers that arbitrarily have to go to office.
