Should I work from home?
Remote and office work can affect productivity, career development, money, routines and relationships. Compare the actual trade-offs rather than the label.
Compare what changes
- Commute time and cost
- Focus and productivity
- Learning, mentoring and visibility
- Team connection and collaboration
- Home working costs and boundaries
- Flexibility around family and personal commitments
Look for the workable option
You may not need a permanent yes or no. A hybrid arrangement, trial period or clearer boundaries can sometimes solve the underlying problem.
