That was one of the reasons I chose my most recent employer to be a company that doesn't have an office within 2500 miles of where I live. There's no way they could reasonably demand that I come in to their office on more than an every few months basis. Incidentally, they're also pushing an RTO for people who live within 25 miles of their office -- unsurprising, since they just rented a brand new, 16000 square foot space a few months ago. I feel sorry for those who are averse to RTO and couldn't see it coming.

Are you ever concerned you might be an easy person to chop for layoffs? My employer is moving to full-time RTO and the rumor mill is that most people outside of that (similar, 25 mile) boundary will largely be in the first round of layoffs.

Well, I live in the Bay Area, so it's not like it'd be hard (relatively speaking -- I am aware of how truly insane the job market is right now) to get another remote or hybrid gig with a more local company.
