Are they still traveling a lot at TW? I don't want to live in a hotel for 4 days a week, so I declined when they approached me.
Generally speaking, the travel is because the client wants the team to be on site and pairing with the client's people.
We have a bunch of people who prefer not to travel as much, and that's fine too.
Also, work-from-anywhere tooling is getting better and better, and more of our clients are asking about it. In my opinion these tools are really good though not as good (yet) as being in person in groups.
I would recommend talking to the recruiter and let them know your preferences before declining.
Interesting, thanks. At my current job they try to staff local as much as possible, there is no formal hierarchy and we also have 20% time, so my standards are high. Traveling too much would be a no go for me.
