What are your views on remote work? Is this the future or just a phase?

by•
As an African with non-tech background, I find remote work to be liberating and more rewarding. I’m curious to know your views on remote work.

Oh for sure it is the future. I think we're going to see more ideas focusing on socializing caused by lack hours at the office. Co-working space is just one of them.
Anil Meena
@bestbubbledev yes.. new places, new people, new networks.

As the benefits of working remotely, I can say that the possibility of working flexibly, the possibility of working productive, not being confined to a single place, being able to change more often, freedom of travel and multitasking. If we talk about the problems: detaching from work motivation and seriousness, not being able to get out of the comfort zone, not being able to focus enough, and differences in working hours of the employees. I think the future result will be a hybrid working system. In this way, employees will not be disconnected from the work environment, and they will be able to work more comfortably and efficiently.

@arda_finsmart What will your balance for a hybrid working system look like? All workers report on a specific day? How many days a week allowed to work remotely? etc
Paul Michaels
@arda_finsmart @ralphsalterego Yeah, it's a bit of a mess right now. Imagine how you'd feel fighting 1-2 hours of commuting and then have Zoom calls all day at the office.
Nadir Arda Oral
@ralphsalterego I think it is necessary to go to the office at least one day a week so that the work environment and team awareness can be remembered. Although it varies according to the number of days the employee works, I think that going one or two days a week is sufficient.
Nadir Arda Oral
@ralphsalterego @paul_d_michaels2 I agree with you, just trying to go to the office takes a few hours out of the day.

It's been a phase for me for a decade. For sure it has pros and cons but for me the good far out weighs the bad
Paul Michaels
@joanne_hurleyv1 🤣 I didn't skip a beat when lockdown happened. I work at a walking desk so I am constantly in motion (+ creativity, + concentration and more) so I couldn't work sitting at a desk all day.
Emma Brown
Definitely the future. Hopefully people will learn to care less about work.
Paul Michaels
@nworb I would add "keep the importance of work in perspective." I think COVID might have spurred people to rethink a little bit.

YES..this is the future. Remote employees are more productive and prefer working from home. Working from home also saves a lot of money, and there is a substantial cost saving for office space. Our Financial Consultant & Advisor will help you plan & save for your financial goals. Visit us now!

I believe Hybrid is the future. Remote work has definitely seen a boost after the pandemic, but there are still companies that feel the human connection is a must.
Heather Blow
I think it is the future
Paula Clagon
I think working remotely is an awesome alternative to spending hours in your car commuting.
Anil Meena
@paula_clagon haaha true true... before covid I always had my places closer to office.

There is certain balance we all look for where Remote work is needed to balance our lives and work life
Sanjay Somashekar
Personally I feel that we can be more productive when we are working out of an office. If all of our team is at a single location, it is easier for us to discuss any ideas and brainstorm in real time.
Anil Meena
@sanjay_somashekar yes... I think its more like preference because I have seen people being less productive at home and likes to go to office if given a choice.
