+1!!
+10 I am remote even before COVID. In my 5years of experience, never went to office!
Con Very difficult to switch now as no company is offering remote work now
I feel hybrid culture is the best though. Sometimes you need to concentrate on some work which doesn't happen at workplace.
Hybrid is the worst - don’t have enough flexibility to plan any holidays
Have to pay rent in a Tier 1 city while not getting the benefits of either
In my opinion, that is a problem with the employer. If the company has a good culture and then planning leaves shouldn't be a problem. That is a big problem though! Agreeing with the tier 1 issue here and considering cities like Bangalore and Mumbai, it is getting worse day by day.
In my case, I go to a co-working place 500mtrs from my house. Best of both the worlds—no commute, and no distractions.
When I did it:
TBH i feel much more active and alive stepping out in the world, which I unfortunately stopped doing during remote
