Employees love the remote work culture and are keen to work in an organization that provides a remote work environment. Have this in mind, businesses and organizations have been moving towards hybrid and remote work.
As the world largely transitioned from in-office culture to hybrid/remote-first culture, we saw a significant amount of support as well as the opposition. However, some companies like Yahoo, BestBuy and Reddit vehemently opposed the idea of working remotely. The reasons they had quoted were many. The major arguments among them were around the following premises:
The Metaverse is a topic on everyone’s lips at the moment, thanks in part to the announcement from Mark Zuckerberg that Facebook would be rebranded as ‘Meta’, to...
Cultivating a healthy remote work culture is a continuous process that requires a lot of attention from both the company management and the employees. The idea is to build a community where everyone in the company feels empowered, and trusted so that they can work their best.
Today, going to work no longer means going into a specific office like it used to; as many countries enter a post-pandemic world, we’re seeing flexible work environments— a mix of remote and on-site working, emerge across many organizations from small-scale to large companies. Remote work trends are increasing post-pandemic period.
The gig economy is growing at a pace faster than ever, all thanks to the extraordinary hype for remote and flexible work. Even before COVID-19 uprooted our traditional in-office work mode, the rise of the gig economy for freelancing was incredibly popular in countries like the U.S. The pandemic, however, transformed the way businesses pursue their operations too! Additionally, 20% of the current full-time workforce is planning to shift to freelancing.
Imagine working in a company that has its teammates distributed across 4 continents in the world. The team would definitely lack real connections among them; meeting apps do little to help that.

Uber, Deliveroo, and Other Semi-Self Employment
If you haven’t had the luxury of McDonald's delivered straight to your house by a man on a bike then you’re missing out (unless the idea of paying 2x for lukewarm fast food isn’t your idea of appetizing). Regardless of your opinion on paying for the added convenience of delivery of an already convenient meal fast-food meal, the industry is on the rise. Uber eats and Deliveroo fills a gap that for the longest time had no reason to be filled. These fast-food restaurants had no incentive to employ delivery drivers and so they didn't. It took a third party to take up this challenge, and in doing so, created a new form of employment.
For the longest time, in-person office culture has been the dominant way to work. However, this is changing. Labour movements and the pandemic have created a situation where the general populace is ready for change. If it's been the only way you’ve ever worked, it may be difficult to imagine what life would be like in a more employee-oriented culture that allows flexibility in work hours and location. Too easy is to grow accustomed to the flaws of office work and assume they are a necessity of modern work, but they are not! Office workers have had a taste of working from home and are ready to unshackle themselves from the 9-to-5, commute-to-work lifestyle they’ve grown tired of living.
