To point out the obvious, if you aim to job hunt only within the "100% remote"-compatible employers:
(1) You used to have a much larger share of the talent in your smaller pool.
(2) You will now be the same sized fish in a much larger pond (potentially the whole world). Expect your salary offers to drop and your job search to last much longer unless you are a unique talent.
- downerending 6y agoNot sure I agree with this. The important point is that a lot of employers have learned in the last few months that it really does work to let people work remotely. If so, the pool of employers is now far larger. Also, my comp is currently quite low, rather close to my "I'll just retire" line. Yeah, the offers could drop, but not far without market failure. Finally, I'm well over 50. Turns out that that matters more than anything else we're talking about here.
