Remote vs. Onsite Tech-Jobs
Die Trade-offs zwischen voll Remote und voll Onsite-Tech-Beschäftigung.
Option A
Fully remote
Option B
Fully onsite
## Geographic flexibility
Remote removes the geographic constraint entirely. Onsite locks residence to commute distance.
## Compensation
At equivalent companies and seniority, onsite bands run slightly higher (typically 5 to 15 percent). The gap has narrowed since 2022.
## Career development
Onsite roles still confer mentorship and informal learning advantages, particularly early-career. The gap is smallest at remote-mature companies.
## Lifestyle
Remote removes commute time. Onsite provides structural separation between work and home.
