Every tech company was forced into remote working, suddenly now every tech worker is (really) competing on the global job market, and the market is adjusting to the new offer/demand. That’s my theory.
- mym1990 5y agoI think only recently have we seen companies adopt actual long term remote policies since initially the intent was to come back into the office. Also, I think it’s probably closer to a regional or national market at most. Most companies won’t just let any employee work from anywhere due to tax laws. For example, I can currently live in any state but that state has to have my company incorporated in it(which is about 25 states).
- tomrod 5y agoThis would drive wages down.
- hcarvalhoalves 5y agoShould drive the average global wage up for top talent.
- gorbachev 5y agoYes, there are some companies who have changed to fully remote and now hiring people from anywhere. There isn't enough of these companies to make even a small blip in the global job market. The vast, vast majority of companies are still hiring people locally.
