The salary that the company is willing to pay you depends on how much you are worth to them. In the scenario where you move to New York because they require your physical presence, your value to them depends on location so they would pay you more for being in New York. In the scenario where you work remotely, your value to them doesn't depend on location.
- PaulDavisThe1st 5y agoFar too simplistic. Companies have quite a lot of wiggle room in what they pay people. They might merely "prefer" my physical presence in NYC rather than require it, and prefer it sufficiently to pay me the extra. They might prefer that I was in the SF bay area too, but in that scenario, not so much that it's worth paying me the extra. It's gray zones all the way down, baby!
