I always worked from home, one day a week, before COVID. I'm Dutch and a consultant for hire and never had any issues with companies not allowing it. After COVID most of the IT crowd I know wants to work from home. I am currently working for a client on the other side of the Netherlands. It's a 90 minute drive to the office. I took this contract because we only go to the office once per 2 weeks (on the day the Sprint ends). I know a lot of you think that 90 minutes is not a long drive BUT that is only on IDEAL times. It's straight though Amsterdam and on the busiest highways; it's more often a 2 hour drive than 90 minutes. Also: My wife was actually from Rotterdam so each office visit is combined with a trip to my in-laws. I stay for one night so my travel is purely outside of the daily commute hours. I only pick companies where I am allowed to work from home.
