After seeing the variance by region, it makes me very curious about the % adjustment for telecommuting-only jobs. I'm at the low end of the scale (and about $30k underpaid if you adjust for location and skills), but I work from home on the opposite side of the country from my employer.
- aaronblohowiak 16y ago30k underpaid for your location or the location of the employer? If it is for the location of the employer, then you are "right-sourced" and being paid "fairly". Honestly, i think telecommuting-only jobs make such a minority of jobs that gathering real data on their pay would be difficult.
- matwood 16y agoI telecommute and put my own $ figure out what it's worth to me. When I first started I thought the salary was fair for what I thought telecommuting was worth. Recently I've been talking to my supervisor about a raise because now I feel I'm underpaid (and the article just proves along with my other research). The company also cut my bonus to a why bother number and raised my insurance costs. I love working at home, but there comes a point where I can't justify leaving so much money on the table in prime earning years.
