It's completely ridiculous to take a cut for that. One should get a raise for it. Office space costs money. Where there is no need for office space, a lot of money is being saved.

If you are willing to take a 10% pay cut I think your motivation might be that remote work allows you to save more than 10% on things like rent.

I get 2 hours of my life back every day by not commuting, plus the saving on lunches and fuel.

And seeing my young children develop, being there for all the moments I used to just see in photos with my other kids.

Energy in the evenings because I didn’t kill time in traffic.

Never going back.
