I have a family, so working at home is far preferable to working in an office. Then again, my previous workplace was toxic (bad management), so perhaps it's better with better management, but I can't see how working in an office can ever compete with being at home with my wife and kids. If you want/need more social interaction, there are plenty of other options to consider, such as: - join a sports team or community group - interact with neighbors (they become co-workers if they're also working remote) - get a co-working space - attend community meetups regularly (I go to technical and entrepreneurship meetups) - get hobbies outside the house that involve others The nice part about working from home is you get to decide who to interact with since you're not stuck with whomever your company chose to hire, and you can still communicate with them over chat or whatever. Sure, you have to be a little more proactive about it, but I think it's clearly better.
