Is The Golden Age Of Remote Work Over?
Переглядів 1,012,184
День томуFinding fully remote work is getting challenging. New research from Indeed found that job postings are declining faster in metropolitan areas where many jobs can be done remotely.
"Some of the pushback remote work is driven by concerns about productivity," said Kory Kantenga, senior economist at LinkedIn. "There have been some experimental studies that show that there are some productivity impacts, potentially from remote work. But those studies are also experiments, right? It's unclear how they apply to the broader labor force."
During the pandemic, remote work became the darling of the corporate world, and companies going fully remote became the new normal. The U.S. Census Bureau found that the number of people working primarily from home tripled from 2019 to 2021.
"Remote work was thrust upon us basically by the pandemic," said Nicholas Bloom, professor of economics at Stanford University. "Before the pandemic, remote work was pretty rare. All managers and professionals were basically fully remote for much of 2020. And then it turned out it's worked really well."
As the world began to open up, though, corporate America shifted its stance on remote work. Some companies have even threatened to fire workers who don't return to the office for a certain number of days.
"The laptop class is living in la la land," Tesla CEO Elon Musk told CNBC's David Faber in a sit-down interview in May 2023. "It's messed up to assume they have to go to work, but you don't. It's not just a productivity issue. It's morally wrong."
Watch the video above to learn why corporate America is pushing against remote work, how remote workers feel about the pushback, and what this workplace trend tells us about the U.S. job market.

That's the unspoken issue. If a company issues a "back to the office" mandate, some of the most-talented people will be able to find other jobs quickly and quit before having to come in. Other employees will be forced to come in, but be hunting for new WFH jobs...so there will be a continual drain of talent over the following months. 6 months in the employer will find itself disproportionately staffed with people who couldn't find a job anywhere else (and their morale will not be great). Not sure that's a win for the employer.

As a Supervisor, this is/was the wrong move. Remote work is a zero-cost benefit given to employees, and not once did I have anybody complain about salaries during that time, because the savings from gas, wardrobe, cooking at home, and overall quality of life was so beneficial, nobody wanted to leave for fear of losing that benefit…….
@JasonTaylor-po5xc 6 місяців тому
Companies often forget about the cost-benefit of having happy employees. It can also be a net positive if companies downsize or eliminate costly office leases. It is also a competitive advantage when hiring top talent. I won't consider even a hybrid position unless there are no other options available, much less on-site.
@JasonTaylor-po5xc 6 місяців тому
@ChimChim-wr8qp Some do, some don't. Employee turnover has real costs. The employer's job isn't to care, it's to get work done by providing goods and services. Employees are a necessary expense to accomplish that. Which is why remote work should not only be expressed in terms of employee benefit but how it impacts the employer too. Especially with highly desired fields, employee perks are a way to attract and keep top talent.

The extra 2-3 hours a day that I save by working remote are mine. It gives me time to get my life in order, take my medicine, live a healthier lifestyle, and not drive my vehicle into the ground.

As an IT professional, I've been able (and have done) remote work off and on for the past 20 years - mostly what we call "hybrid" today. Each year, the tools keep getting better. In the past, I always found it interesting that I had to sit in agonizing traffic each day just to work virtually with people on the other side of the world. At least for many high-focus professions like software engineering, an office environment is more distraction than anything else. Pre-pandemic, I used to work from home 1-2 days a week just to get stuff done and save collaboration for other days. For the past three years, I've been 100% remote - I'll only go back into the office once the last company does away with it or perhaps I'll just freelance instead.

@JasonTaylor-po5xc I’m a IT professional myself. I’m a System Administrator and im Security + 501 certified! During the pandemic I worked full time remotely from home. Last year my manager tried to get me to come into the office full time! His excuse was the same BS line everyone uses (collaboration and teamwork)! I told him I have 10 years worth of IT experience with certifications and I would leave if I had to come into that hell hole of a office full time. So we made a compromise and I just come in the office 2 days a week on Monday and Tuesday.

Remote work changed my life fully. Went from living and working in central London, then commuting by car and train to fully remote and travelling and living around the world. Pandemic forced my employer to make me redundant and lose my dream job as a photographer (amazon), then my old employer called me with an opportunity to come back and help them out remotely. It's been almost 3 years now and I lived in 3 different countries moving to 4th, opened my own business, found a girlfriend and we travel and work together. However, I count myself very lucky and I agree that remote work isn't for everyone and everything but employers have to be honest with themselves, do they really need people who spend 100% of their time working on a computer to come to an office? My boss said the best: "If you want an office I'll rent one for you, like Swedish or Polish colleagues they like working from an office. I prefer to be at home and drive to a factory when there's a need, if you're happy where you are, I'm happy too!"

I worked in blue collar and white collar positions during pandemic. But knowing how corporations think and operate. And seeing how the ‘work from home’ seemed to good to be true, i had a sneaking suspicion it would end, even when folks kept saying it was going to stay around forever. Here in Boston, I saw people being forced to go back into the office for hybrid work starting in 2021. Now folks have to do four days a week. But I’m sure they’ll be gone too. When tried applying for remote jobs, they were so few in number in Massachusetts. Working from home is a true money saver, is best for the family and mental health. But companies don’t care about all that. And they will reverse, and buy back buildings, and make everyone slowly, but surely come back to work.

having happy workers that feel like they're getting meaningful perks will always be a win for companies. Saving costs on commutes, lunches, business clothes and even saving the stress of dealing with toxic co workers is valuable to staff. It provides incentive for them to remain loyal to the company because no one really wants to give those perks up. Also, saving on office space, electricity, insurance for these buildings can save mulitple millions across industries that can offer this.

I'd love to see commercial buildings redesigned into smaller business suites! My barber shut down his old 1000sqft barber shop that he'd been running for many years and relocated into a smaller 120sqft private salon suite within a commercial building downtown. The salon suite is awesome because it's just you and your one barber/stylist/aesthetician/etc. He also loves it because he no longer needs to manage other people, a large building/property/parking lot, collecting "rent" from seats he leased out to other barbers, etc. He just maintains and builds his own mini shop, equipment, clientele, etc. As an aside, the salon suite idea is just amazing for those needing multiple services (hair, manicure, pedicure, massage) all in one building.

I started a new job this year as the head (VP) of my function. Fully remote. It really is like a dream in some respects. I make 1% income. I have multiple homes in different states and working remotely lets me move around. My boss is on another continent. My entire group is fully remote in different time zones/countries and we work well together with no drama. I know 100% that my group is not working fully throughout normal business hours (neither do I), but we do whatever it takes to get things done, even if it means working outside of normal business hours on occasion. When I started out working many years, I would never have envisioned that work could be anything besides commuting to an office and being chained to your desk for 8 hours.

People who don't want to face their home problems head-on are for sure the reason we were all forced back into the office. That guy who hates his wife, that woman who never trained her children how to behave and now they are little terrors. Also there are the losers who have no outside hobbies and interests that allow them to meet people and so they view the office as their own little matchmaking service. The office is a place to work, not meet your next boyfriend or girlfriend. And there are the middle managers whose role is mostly undefined and who know that they are obsolete. They need an in-person workforce to seem relevant. Finally you have the upper C level people who think that employees sitting in beanbag chairs and playing ping pong are needed to show company culture and set them apart from competitors. (The employees like their coworkers but have family and friends already and don't like having these lines forcefully blurred.)

But the company insists on all of us being in the office far more often than we'd like. All this while insisting that they increase the workforce overseas!

@samuxan 6 місяців тому
In my experience productivity is boosted when working from home. Currently we have 3 days at the office and 2 at home, most of the real work gets done in those 2 days. This last summer there were some renovations at the building so we spent 5 weeks working full time from home and it was the most productive august ever. At the office people get there already tired from traffic, they waste a lot of time talking to each other, having coffee or relay too much on printing when it's not necessary. sadly the managers just want people where they can see them even if they contribute less that way so we may even lost the 2 days of remote work. It's pointless. On a wider level if remote work was more prevalent we'll have lower rent, less energy consumption from cooling/heating/lighting, less co2 emissions from cars, less wasted time commuting,.... there are no negatives

We have a computer system that sends work to me and if I don’t complete it by when it’s due alarms will go off . Working in the office wouldn’t change my productivity. And we have constant Microsoft Teams chat running if I have a question or want to talk to the team or just say hi, emails and Zoom calls with cameras either off or on. I do miss the face to face socialization but even that has pluses and minuses. The other thing is work from home is going to be a job with a ton of sitting working at a computer and doesn’t require a lot of hands on which isn’t for everyone. It can get boring and isolating but honestly being in a cubicle farm won’t solve that either.

Telework works best for those already established with their job routines as well as personal life. It's not so great for entry-level who still need to build up their professional network and human soft skills that you can't get through text chats and scheduled meetings.
