The discussion is often about efficiency and productivity and from the point of view of someone who really likes working from home, I think that’s the wrong way to frame it. I think of WFH as a perk akin to paid vacation or health insurance benefits. Are workers more efficient when they get 4 weeks of paid vacation? Maybe or maybe not. It doesn’t really matter though because vacation isn’t framed as a way of increasing productivity. It’s a perk. I think flexibility around WFH is should also be talked about as a perk that companies offer to attract and keep talent.
