The average employee returning to the office spends $561 per month–that's the average two-person household’s grocery bill in the U.S. for the entire month.
I am a software developer and I would never work for say a gambling company. I’m not skilled enough for a FAANG company but I wouldn’t do it even if I was.
If you can get a job at a FAANG the you can get a job anywhere. Certainly for less money but money is meaningless after a point.
A bit weird for those with no choice.
You have no choice but to work for these companies? Lol.
How does anyone survive without working for them?
People get tied into locations because of family and mortgages, it’s reductive to say what you did.
So there’s no way for those people to leave?
Doing so would mean death?
Or do you think the only viable solutions are easy ones?
Don’t be silly.
I am not in that situation, but it would be great to not live in Indiana.
It would also be great if my mother wasn’t in her 80s and my wife’s mother wasn’t in her 70s and didn’t need our help for things.
But they do and we wouldn’t abandon them.
Have fun getting another job in tech in this market.
Already done.
Good for you buttmunch
Thanks, there’s no reason to be angry though.
They do have a choice.
