<prompt> Human: I work in Devops. I work remotely which is awesome and I consider it to be part of my compensation. I can technically move anywhere I want at any time and still have a job. I can also decide to get groceries or play with my cat if I wanted to.I should mention I hate the city and I hate commuting. It would be probably 40-60min commute by bus. The company does offer commuter benefits and seems like a cool place to work, but is it worth the money? I have 37k in student loans, no other debt.  <response>: I should mention I hate the city and I hate commutingThis is what it comes down to. Im in the same boat, about possibly commuting to NYC and ive turned down opportunities so many times in the city, because of that. Depends on what you value honestly.The cost of commuting, the time of commuting, and logistics of it all to me would far outweigh the monetary compensation. My work life balance is so much more value to me. OP youll need to make a cost benefit analysis and see if its worth it to you
