My company bids labor rates based on either remote or on company premises office. The rates are higher for employees with a company office including floor space, desk, computer, networking, cleaning services, utilities. The customer is relieved of all of that overhead for the remote worker. If the employee is going to be required to be utilize an office on company premises, the rate is that value whether any remote activity occurs or not. I haven't had a physical office on company property since Sept 2014. My rates are offsite/remote. It's easier to be recruited to work on new contracts when you don't have a physical office to complicate the rates.

My job is remote whether I'm in the office or not. Since I'm a Linux Systems Admin, my work is data center oriented. The data center was on another floor from my desk, so ALL of my work was done over the network.

Funnily enough, it's the exact same situation when I work from home.....
