Then again, I'm at a senior principle engineer level, and need to have face time with my VPs and directors in addition to other devs. I don't believe it would be possible to work at the level I'm at remotely, nor to be promoted to such a level. And my commute isn't horrid at ~25min.

"Except bad weather days."

Exactly! Your company has to offer any kind of WFH to allow that!

That's marvelous. The point is that many companies don't allow that, and should.
