I recently interviewed for a field-based engineering consulting position with a startup that requires up to 50% travel. The role involves spending two weeks on-site and then two weeks back in the office. During the interview, the CEO mentioned that for an upcoming trip, they had booked an AirBnB with an extra room available. While the salary is appealing—around $125,000 with overtime, meals, and accommodations covered—I'm hesitant about sharing living space with colleagues. I value my personal space and need time to recharge after long 10-12 hour workdays. The thought of being in close quarters with coworkers, especially after spending all day together, feels overwhelming. I can socialize, but I also need time alone to unwind. I'm wondering if this is a common arrangement in the industry and how to approach the job offer. Should I request private accommodations or is this just how things are done now? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
