Needing an office.
Lots of people in sfbay and nyc structure their living situations around not spending lots of time at home. That has been upended.
My company is allowing people to become permanently remote, if they want. However, after covid, if you go full or mostly remote, it will be a hard requirement to have a dedicated room for an office. That is probably incompatible with living in most of the bay area.
- MattGaiser 6y ago> it will be a hard requirement to have a dedicated room for an office. Is this something they can actually verify?
- x0x0 6y agoI doubt we're going to verify it. But if an employee can't provide a quiet, nice looking location for calls and reliable internet, they'll be fixing that situation or getting a different job. It's part of our planning on going remote in a way that is likely to succeed. iow, we're being explicit about requirements.
- dllthomas 6y agoThey could verify that you have a room that appears to be dedicated, especially during meetings and such. They probably can't reasonably verify that it remains dedicated outside of work hours, but they probably also don't care.
