As a mid career employee I love remote work. Reflecting on my early career development, I don't know how I would have gotten to where I am without the in person interaction with more senior folks and my peers.
Someone tell all those tech startups or the tech megacorps or the traditional companies ... Maybe just tell everyone :D
I've worked remote for 4+ years and could not see myself going back. I love being able to leave a meeting and hang with my wife & kids, even for 5 minutes, it makes my day better.
That said, many of the people that report to me are part of a co-contractor whose policy is essentially structured to force low performing assets into the office. I'm not quite sure how I feel about that, but in my role, I've seen it be successful for them.
Alternatively, "Companies that outperform on revenue growth can afford to have more flexible remote work policies."
