MODERATORS
Commute obviously has an impact on overall satisfaction. In roles that can be done remote or in person you can effectively trade commute time for pay.
This logic can be extended to employees working in person with contrasting commute times. Thus op's question
Most of an employees job has perverse incentives
I don't think anyone is successfully taking advantage of longer commute time for more pay.
Whether you acknowledge it or not, commute time is already factored in to employees compensation. This happens in a few ways but one of the ways it doesn't happen is employees choosing to more farther away to make more money.
