If they are allowed to occasionally work from home then it means that they are also capable of working from home full time and that is the main take away.

- Bootvis 7y agoWe can argue whether this is theoretically true but I haven’t met an employer here in the Netherlands that thinks this. Working from home some of or most of the time is fine but there needs to be face to face contact at least weekly.
- toyg 7y agoNot really true. I turned down a very good job in Amsterdam just last month, because they wanted me in the office 4 days a week. It was a great employer, tons of perks, I’m sure they were flexible about times and you could move that remote day to suit you etc etc, but still: 4 days in, not negotiable. I’ve seen the same here in UK. The remote day effectively ends up being an unofficial reduction of working hours rather than an acceptance of WFH as legitimate.
