Well, I think some fully remote is fine. However, I do think hybrid is the best model. Just my opinion.
One of the “dangers” of fully remote is that they become fully global. The amount a company will pay becomes disconnected from the cost-of-living. That creates inequity. Not just that employees in richer areas may be underpaid but also that remote employees for rich companies may be paid far more than their countrymen in their home market.
I don’t really like the idea of running decades of income lottery while the global order works this all out.
Even within a single country it can be fairly extreme.
Not just that employees in richer areas may be underpaid
But surely in that scenario people wouldn’t apply for the job.

Yeah you’re right, that sounds terrible.
Seriously we already have a global market, this is not some new emerging phenomenon. I work with people from countries all over the world. The company doesn’t pay them the same as they pay me. They get chicken feed.
