I've seen this around, Meta/FB for example currently are hiring people anywhere and letting them work remotely because of current circumstances but you have to declare that you're open to relocation and pick a "home office" regardless of your preference for remote work.
- kmonsen 5y agoI'm remote for Meta/FB I can say that remote means remote. There is no pressure to come to the office, and they are OK with people relocating away from the office. The comp gets adjusted based on zip code or something like that. You are probably coming out ahead anyway, from what I have seen the adjustments are smaller than the cost of living and tax comparisons. I do live in the area and meet up with coworkers from time to time because I enjoy that, but there is really zero pressure to do so. The home office thing is because when I get devices they send them to the closest office first, then they will get delivery to my home. Never heard anyone having an issue because they are too far from an office. I do have coworkers that live far from offices.
- sweettea 5y agoI want to reiterate this: I live literally three hours from any Meta office, I have never heard anyone encourage me to go to an office, and my team even has no three people in the same state. There's certainly the freedom to live near and go to the office if you need that work-life separation, but it's a freedom. And I really admire our senior leadership working to spend more time geographically distributed and remote themselves, to show their commitment to make Facebook treat geographically diverse, remote employees with equality.
