- klodolph 6y agoThis is just marketing spin, I’d like to think that the people in this discussion are talking about the merits of a pay differential, and the way you phrase it is not really the point under discussion here.
- klodolph 6y agoCategorically, the value of remote workers is lower than the value of local workers. This is largely due to network effects and the higher efficiency of communication with co-located teams. I’m a software engineer, and like other software engineers, my job is something like 50% communication and 50% coding/testing/operations. As you go up in seniority and expertise, the ratio shifts more and more in favor of communication. A fresh graduate or more junior employee might have a larger share of coding/testing/operations. The communication side of my job is suffering like never before during mandatory WFH.
