Husband weighing options to go back to the office for more money
Hello! Posting bc my husband doesn’t have Reddit.
My husband became remote like everyone during Covid, then managed to avoid an RTO 2 years ago to go to another remote position. He is weighing out whether or not to take a job offer that is full time back in the office. He’s looked hard for remote roles and has not gotten any bites. Recruiters have said that a ton of their companies have done RTO.
He does like his job and his coworkers but is vastly underpaid and it bothers him. This new offer is 60% (yes we calculated it) more than his current job but it’s on site every day. The job is roughly 35 mins away, standard commute.
He’s having a hard time deciding on keeping his remote job and being underpaid or making real money for the first time in his career.
What do you guys think?
Edit-adding more context.
-Husband has looked for several months. Not one interview. Recruiters don’t even have remote jobs available anymore. -Family finances are okay right now but will need a new car soon and more $$ would help -Has friends at the new company and it’s a solid company
