Ask HN: How do you set compensation for remote workers?

[ReDeiPirati]

Hi HN friends, I'm genuinely curious to know how you are setting compensation for remote employees.

- Do you consider cost of living?

- Do you allocate an additional office setup package?

- Pay everyone the same? (e.g. Datacamp)

- Create a salary calculator? (e.g. GitLab)

I wish more companies would adopt GitLab's salary calculator approach, IMHO it is probably the one most fair.

Check out this calculator from Pequity: https://www.getpequity.com/relocation-calculator.html

They help companies set up compensation plans and put together a calculator for this.
