[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care at all, but I think one should take a paycut. Generally, I think anyone who has a job that requires one to work in person, should be paid considerably more. From the grocery restocker to yard work people to teachers to construction crew to janitors to nurses. [/quote]

As a federal government employee who strongly prefers to work from home, I would have no issue with a salary differential based on how many days one is required to be in the office, with more mandatory days in the office resulting in higher pay.  That seems equitable and fair to me.[/quote]

Why? It doesn’t to me. It’s not like the in-office person inherently works more[/quote]

DP. The in-office person person has to pay for gas, commute, and commit more time. WFH is obviously a greater indulgence, and should clearly not be compensated equally.

Conversely, the WFH employee saves the employer money when it comes to office space an electricity bills. WFH person spends more out of pocket on electricity and office supplies. Seems like a wash to me. [/quote]

Dumb arguments all around. Your employer pays you to get a job done. Just because someone is in person doesn't mean they are higher value to the company.  Why would they pay them more?  Your expenses are your problem.  Would you expect your company to start paying you more because you moved from Sterling to Arlington?

As a manager I love granting my employees preferences to WFH.  I have a few that prefer to come in for some of the office amenities though.  Whatever keeps people happy and engaged.  And it's not the same for everyone.[/quote]
