A proposal from the Labor Department would make an estimated 3.6 million salaried workers newly eligible for overtime pay. It covers workers earning less than $55,000 per year.

I do appreciate it. I'll call my role technical consulting too to keep things rather vague. My boss, and his boss, and his boss are VERY in-tune to the work/life balance. And the company as a whole has zero plans to get people into offices as they were very remote-first well before the pandemic. Hell my team is spread out across the US so it's not like I would be able to see any of them in-person anyway. When I took this position in May I had to make a list of where everyone was located to keep track of timezones, lol.

That’s really close to how my role used to be, glad to know there still roles out there, I’ll have to get to searching again. Happy for you!

It's a rather niche role which is why I kept things vague since I wouldn't be hard to dox if I got into specifics, but yeah they do still exist. Hope your search goes well! And thanks!!
