It works for some people and not everyone. Also, some jobs it makes sense for. It is what it is.

>Zillow shifted to allowing people to work fully remote during the pandemic. It's been a recruiting and retention tool for Zillow as they "now see four times the number of job applicants for every job we have versus what we did before the pandemic," Wacksman said.

It's definitely keeping me in my current job. Three days WFH, two "as needed" which is usually just a half day if anything. Is an extra $10k year worth the hassle of a 5 day a week commute. Not for me it's not.

I'd have to be looking at a doubling of my salary to go back in the office full time. It's just not needed for IT work.

An extra 10k/yr to commute is a wash if you have to commute more than maybe 3-5 miles depending on where you live. You have to take every single thing into account. Loss of freedom/flexibility, vehicle maintenance and fuel (company does not pay for), loss of time (company does not pay for). Stress, eating out if you forgot or didn't bring a meal with you, unable to go to a near by doctor if you have an appointment without now taking half a day off as PTO... etc...

Screw them. I am willing to take a little lower pay to gain everything else back. It is worth far more to me than what will basically be a wash and taxed away anyway.

Their website sucks ass. The map doesn't even work. I think they outsourced to pajeets. Realtor.com is 10x better now.

Like all sites, such as news sites. You must use multiple to get any real data. It is unfortunate.
