Define "the pay was good".
For what they're known payscales say they'd pay a dev with my experience? No way in hell. It's only slightly more than I make now, and I'd have to go back to the office and work for an evil company (though I'm in Insuretech today, so that bit might just be a lateral move..). Plus I live in a low CoL area today, so a bit more money would actually mean a substantial QoL drop.
Now if we're talking stupid money, like $600k/year, then yeah I'd suck up going to the office and abandon my morals. Frankly anyone here who says they wouldn't do it for any salary is kidding themselves
