Fwiw, I've made >300k with a hard <40 hr week. Honestly, high salaries and flexible work hours seem like they should correlate (and always have for me): both are simply a result of how in-demand your labor is. There are certain jobs that require high availability, but many that don't, and if you're able to command a high salary, it shouldn't be very difficult to get some of your effective comp paid out in flexibility.
- overcast 7y agoSounds like you hit the jackpot. Generally high compensation demands high hours. You the man!
- wutbrodo 7y agoI was very very lucky, a couple times, with the timing of what I was passionate about and what the market was interested in. And plenty of the people I know work longer hours because they're so in-demand. But I think the underlying principle is sound: if you have the market power to command high salaries, most companies wont push you away for wanting reasonable working hours.
