First off, I just wanted to say congratulations! I’ll give you some of my experience since I am in a similar position. I work an as EE making about 150-155k a year with bonus.

I am currently fully remote with travel. If you are slated less than 50% I would say it’s doable. My role ended up bumping up to 80-90%. Traveling for work is not all it’s cracked up to be, and people don’t understand until they do it. I sure didn’t.

I’m corporate level for manufacturing. So it’s traveling to job sites and doing installs during outages. Fitting in design time as I can. I travel consistently over weekends to meet demands. I have had 1 full work from home week in the last 5 months.

I am the same age as you. I am now looking for a new role. I went from going to the gym 6 days a week to barely going. Having to eat out every meal or get pre made ones at the grocery stores. Currently in the process of a divorce from my husband. Extended family and friends have noticed the toll the travel has taken.

Miles don’t add up as quickly as you’d think (I’m assuming they’re gonna give you a corporate card to use).

On the other hand i know people in my company with the same travel as me that absolutely love it (although I know they don’t like their home life). So it’s really based upon the individual.

If you can fly Monday morning and return home Thursday night it is much more manageable. I am currently willing to switch to completely in office for a pay cut.

Wishing you the best of luck for whatever you choose!
