Remote work’s shrinking, layoffs rising. What’s your plan?

Discussion

Portugal with a mortgage. Remote jobs look doomed due to RTO and layoffs. Also, preference hiring locally if remote. Portugal pay won’t cover the bills, and the big money roles are in NY/SF/London/Berlin out of reach fast.

The same conversation about immigration, housing in Portugal happens in the UK, US, Canada, etc. Moving to the big cities will put more pressure in the housing market.

What’s your emergency plan?
