I have been promoted while working remote, so I disagree.

I don’t have 2 different 1 hour commute blocks on my calendar. While you’re fighting traffic, I’m working. While you’re rushing through your morning routine, I’m sitting at my computer catching up on slack. While you’re finding the meeting room, I’m reading the meeting prep material. While you’re getting distracted by Sales in your open office, I’m locked in, midway through a 2 hour coding session.

Did you actually get a promotion with pay increase?

Or did they give you a title and say, great job — now we have higher expectations of you!

It was a $50k salary bump.

What you’re talking about seems like an attempt to placate rather than reward.

Wow, congratulations! Thought that only happened in fairy tales!
