I wonder if as a company transitions to remote if many employees take advantage and work few hours vs a company that was already remote.

Deadlines and other commitments won't change, it's up to managers to make sure employee output stays on track. Though if the disease spreads many employees may be out of commission with the illness or caring for family members. My company discourages work from home, but has multiple offices and we all rely on Slack and video conferencing so much that it'd be pretty apparent if everyone was WFH and someone went for a hike ride instead of working. I find that my productivity improves when I WFH, but I have a dedicated office area to retreat to (plus I save 60 - 90 minutes of commute time)
- awad 7y agoThanks for bringing this up. I always see only positives when discussing remote work but there’s never any consideration made for those who otherwise whose jobs rely on in-person interaction.
