The study just reinforces what everyone knows after working a few places with office politics, that promotions for performance (and raises) are often due to how much people like the recipient.
When you just do your job and don't socialize, it is significantly harder to get promoted.
- cariaso 12y agoRemote is not the route to promotion. It does many have other benefits. Make this choice consciously.
- jasondemeuse 12y agoMaybe in a big company that doesn't have a majority of remote workers or somewhere that remote is a new concept. The company where I work is ~70% remote and has been since the beginning and there has never been an issue with promotions dependent on being the office or not. A lot of this may have to do with our relatively flat hierarchy though, a "promotion" with us is mostly a raise and going from Junior dev to Senior dev, and the only positions "higher" than that are executives. I definitely could imagine PM type positions being harder to get as a remote employee.
