The reason I started as a remote employee was that I could get a local internship in college at $15/hr and have to live in the city or live at home and drive further. On the other hand I applied for remote internships that I could do from home and not have increased expenses while making $25/hr.

Ever since then I have occasionally interviewed for in person roles only to be almost depressed by the offers received. You’re telling me you are offering a Senior/Lead position ~72-80k without providing a laptop, paying healthcare premiums and expecting them to commute 5 days a week? Sure maybe I’ve been had above average positions/compensation but I’ve had better benefits as an intern.
