The UK's economy has been stagnant since the financial crisis and the inflation since Covid has not been matched by salary increases... So all in all things are looking down, which is obviously not good for motivation.

A pay cut for remote can make sense. If you're in the South East and need to commute into London you can sometimes take a £10k pay cut for remote and see no change in income in the end because of the massive saving in train fares.

But this means that at least I am definitely looking for more money!
