05/27/2020, 4:13 AMFacebook actually needs you to return to base only 1 time / year (at the start of the year?)
So once that location is set with them, you are free to move around for the rest of the year? (Atleast that is what I understood from their message).

SF or their subsidiaries in different countries?

05/27/2020, 5:20 AMCan’t find the text of the announcement right now — but Menlo park is the highest bracket. They actually pay a $15K bonus at present if you shift to Menlo Park. So if you move out, it will be calculated down. But I remember reading that they won’t be asking you to update you location regularly. Base salary will be recalculated once a year depending on your location on a particular date.

05/27/2020, 5:27 AMDoes that mean you get an SF salary if you go to SF on the day of the recalculation and after the check-you can go live in Thailand for the rest of the year?
