Advice from women engineers with kids on which job to take.

I have two offers at hand and am struggling to decide. My main goal is more time with my kids, but I also want to reasonably like my job. I am not a social person and live in a rural area, so work is where I meet/talk to people and that makes remote work scary.

1. 15 minute commute, 4-10 schedule, but can flex with 5-8s if needed. Direct manufacturing support as a chemical engineer. This would be essentially a lateral move from my current role but with another company. It is in nuclear energy.

2. Fully remote job. Not direct manufacturing support. This would be a global role with my current company in the electronics industry. I am waiting on the exact dollar amount, but higher pay than option 1. I was told I could maintain an office at my current site, 50 minutes from home. It may require travel up to once per quarter.

Thanks for any advice.
