It's possible it's something like: OP decides to move (which he did) Is promised full WFH remote work or a position in Portland office OP moves and is happy with it VP level issues come about that actually full remote isn't possible, or the project is reshuffled/canned, and there ends up being nothing equivalent in Portland.
