I dont really buy that argument. Local developers are not going to quit because you are paying remote developers less. Location is substantial factor in salary, and almost everyone seems to understand that. Onsite developers are paid genera

The owners started the business, took the risk, etc. If an employee isnt happy with the salary, he can always ask for more, change employer, or start his own business. It is a fair game IMO.

I can tell you these unhappy unmotivated overpaid people are everywhere. It is fairly easy to overcompensate and it can be quite a problem.

I like combining my commute with workout. Cycle, run or walk to work. Especially running to work in the morning gives me very nice energy for the day.

Once a remote worker frauded a company I was working for a large amount of money. I dont think it was a coincidence that it was a remote worker - I believe it is much easier mentally to behave unethically if you dont see the people f2f you

Videoconferencing is OK, but it is still common to have issues with it. Bad image quality, setup by lowest common denominator etc. Often you use that 15 minutes just by trying to make it work properly.
