Google pays by where you live, as determined by your work location. If people move back, they get a bump assuming they took a cut in the first place.

- wildrhythms 3y agoThis is not true. My understanding was that some 'office regions' are paid less than remote workers in the same state. https://archive.is/FQsXB https://archive.is/FQsXB
- eitally 3y agoYou're correct. This famously (within Google) came up in three scenarios: 1) people living in parts of Contra Costa County who were remote, and then paid 10% less than those living in the same place who commuted into a Google office in the bay area, 2) similar situation regarding NYC mapped employees living in Connecticut, and 3) NC-based employees being absolutely abused by being classified as "low cost" and given a 25% haircut in both base salary and equity refreshes.
- sulam 3y agoI did not say people are paid the same based on the state they live in. They are paid based on where they live. Some regions are paid less than others, even within a state.
