No it’s not, it’s just new to you so it seems scary. Companies have been dealing with this for decades with branch offices, contractors, etc.
- KaiserPro 5y ago> branch offices, contractors, etc. Branch offices isnt remote, and contractors are mercenaries. Look, I think there is not "one" answer to this. I personally can't think of anything worse than complete remote. Its isolating, difficult to understand the entire company and everything requires explicit communication. Some companies do this well, Most do not. However I have worked with fully remote workers, and they love being remote. I don't know how we sensible accommodate both modes of working.
- iso1631 5y agoRemote workers aren't stopping you from paying for an office, driving to it, and working there. You seem to not only want to work in an office (fine), but you want other people to.
- kortilla 5y ago> Branch offices isnt remote Yes they are. Any time you have one or two employees on your team but in a branch office, they are effectively remote. This happens a lot a bit companies and has been happening for a long time.
