If I made 2.5x my current salary, which would be almost 400,000 a year, I would seriously consider returning to the office. Then I would retire in something like 10 years which is way earlier than I’m currently looking at. For that, RTO would actually be worth it.
It wasn’t even a bad salary beforehand, it was way above average for my city and I was able to save and invest about 40% of my paycheck, now it’s almost as if all I do is saving since my living expenses are such a small part of the salary
I thought 2.5 meant 2.5 when going in, but it’s more like an 5x on disposable income so it feels completely different

Yeah but you’d be making defense materials and murdering people around the world for your job
There’s a lot of stuff in defense contracts that aren’t killing people in europe
Procurement, borders, visas, terrorism intel, …
I just make very boring CRUD software for international agencies to make national services interoperate better
It’s only defense related because it necessarily has sensitive strategic information transitting through our databases
