How the estimate works
The calculator estimates the number of remote work days from your annual schedule, adds avoided commute and lunch costs, then subtracts any extra at-home cost.
Keep the comparison personal
Work arrangements have effects beyond expenses. Use this result alongside practical factors such as commuting time, work environment, family needs and career goals.
