I've been running a small surf school in Santurce for 9 years, and I'm now considering two job offers. One is a full remote position with a local company, paying well and allowing me to work with colleagues from Puerto Rico. The other is an on-site position with a US company, paying 10% more but requiring me to rent or commute daily to the metropolitan area and work with teams from the US and India.
