This is basically how my company works. We're sort of remote-first in that we have plenty of foreign employees around the world, but we also have a coworking space that people in that city are free to work from. Nobody is forced to work in the office and we have bookable rooms for meetings so nobody is disrupted. It's open plan/hot desks, so I tend to do my coding work from home, but I'm <10 mins from the building so I'll pop in for in person meetings (and the Rocket espresso machine in the kitchen). We also have flexible rules around working abroad eg if you want to visit family and work in another country for a week, that's OK. The tax situation is your problem, but eg I work abroad but I can remote work legally in the UK for 2 weeks a year without affecting my tax liability.
- dont__panic 4y agoWould you mind sharing the company name? That sounds like a lovely model of employment. After getting used to my own espresso setup at home, I don't think I could work at an office without at least a decent machine (about as first-world a problem as it gets, I know).
