Sorry, but with the world economy literally crashing around you, this isn't practical advice. Everyone who was hiring is going to be delaying those decisions right now.

It seems to me that this is a pretty good opportunity for remote companies to have a competitive advantage in the job market. The question is, how many remote jobs exist and how many can be created in a recession?

Thank you.
Start looking for a job asap, don't go in, play out your cards. You can say the things you want. You can say you are sick, you can say you are horrified, but you must start playing the game.
For naive people with good moral in general it's hard. You are not your environment. If you feel they are not doing the right thing accept for yourself that you can't too. If a persen attacks you on street and threatens your life and you can't escape, sometimes you must fight back. That's really sad, but true.
Be smart. Do your best. Don't be a fool.
Many similar posts/problems will come in next weeks/months.
