So why was the employee not OK with taking a pay cut for all those benefits? And if he is gonna be remote anyway, then why not outsource his job to a country with lower cost of living and therefore lower cost of labor?

And doesn't mean that we have to pay everyone more who _has_ to come to work? I.e. because they need to go the factory floor? Or they need to go the power plant?

Don't just look at half the equation.

You only have to pay someone more if you cannot find someone to do the job for lower pay.
