#remotework #workfromanywhere #rto

Remote work has emerged as a clear indicator, rather than a cause, that the traditional economic model, characterized by the dominance of major urban clusters and affluent downtowns, is becoming outdated.

In my view, remote work holds the potential to:
- Distribute employees throughout various markets, thereby supporting underprivileged regions
- Reduce housing expenses as populations disperse
- Encourage individuals to invest in their local communities rather than upscale urban centers by saving on commuting costs
#remotework #wfh #workfromanywhere

✨When office life claims to be a dream, why isn't Yahoo's 2013 #RTO mandate hailed as a triumphant tale 10 years on? Perhaps it's because it never soared to success?
#remotework #WorkFromHome #workfromanywhere #wfh

#FutureOfWork #remotework #regression #returntooffice

Psychology: regression.
Key: monumental failure of leadership.
Return-to-office mandates aren't a testament to remote work's failure, but rather a retreat to familiarity amid economic volatility. Remote work has proven its worth; the pivot back is more about seeking the comfort of old norms than dismissing new efficiencies.
Return to office is “regression to office”.

One of the great joys of #RemoteWork is just being able to both live your life and get work done, without either interfering with the other.

Need to get to the bank, which can only ever be done during business hours? No problem, run out over lunch or during a slow period. Need to have a contractor out for something quick that takes 20 minutes? Answer the door, pay them when they're done, and off you go, spending the equivalent time of a bathroom break.

Alex Nedelcu ☕️

For #RemoteWork, at least corporations worry about inter-team communication, a legitimate worry.

The worst environment I worked in was a startup, who insisted on working from the office w/ very few exceptions. The kind that burned through other people's money. We'd gather around in a circle jerk, thinking of what to pivot to next, and how to spam people to trick them to try our shit, before we'll reach the “end of the runway”.

I'd be glad if we completely got rid of startup culture.

Alex Nedelcu ☕️

SalarRahmanian :scala: :nixos:

#RemoteWork / #WFH is not for every project or team. However, the teams that manage to do it have a competitive advantage.

▶ Cost of life is lower outside city centers of tech hubs;
▶ In tech hubs, you're competing for talent against giant corporations that over-hire;
▶ A culture of doing remote well, is a culture of flexibility;

And your ping-pong table & shared lunches can't match my home-cooked meals, or my cat purring in my lap while I think of hard problems, or the team-building retreats.

#Startups #Founders #Visionaries #RemoteWork #EquitableWork #Awards #BlackRemoteShe

Not going to tempt fate by saying the name of it, but Jasmine Williams-Jacobs was recently nominated for a major award for their work with @blackremoteshe

Adding a thread below with a snippet from the letter of recommendation I wrote as an advisor, and the full letter is attached 🧵

HUGE congrats to Jasmine as they continue to drive serious impact 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Letter of Recommendation

May 15, 2023

Dear Awards team,

It is with great admiration and appreciation that I recommend Jasmine Jacobs, founder of Black Remote She, for an award. Simply put, their work is essential, timely, and precisely what our society needs at this critical moment.

| had the great fortune of connecting with Jasmine in mid-2020 and was instantly impressed with how they sprang into action, creating a platform for Black queer, trans women, and non-binary individuals seeking remote work.

Jasmine’s vision for the platform was clear and compelling from the start, and | readily agreed to serve as an advisor because it was obvious they were building something of deep value that addressed a massive opportunity gap I'd seen firsthand working for and hiring in startups for close to a decade.

There are many things | could say in this recommendation letter, but | prefer to keep it simple and say this: the results speak for themselves.

Over the last 3 years, Black Remote She has grown from a list of jobs emailed to a handful of subscribers into a thriving community and leading advocate for flexible opportunities and equitable workplaces.

1,600+ people are on the subscriber list, 60% of whom open emails on a monthly basis, the website receives 5,000+ visits per month, and Black Remote She is on target to increase revenue by 50%+ each of the last two years.

Equally powerful are the stories. I receive ‘I GOT AN AMAZING JOB BECAUSE OF BLACK REMOTE SHE” emails and social media messages 2-3 times per month, and I'm not even the founder.

| believe this is because Black Remote She not only fills a gap in the market, but it is also because of Jasmine’s unique voice, vision, and consistency in providing connections, education, and stable, secure job opportunities.

Additionally, Jasmine regularly reinforces job seekers through virtual coffee chats, surfacing resources & funding opportunities, and speaking about how equitable work environments can and should function. Their impact is clear not just because they choose to do this extra work, but because they do it with care, intention, and follow-through.

On a personal level, as a former marketing and communications professional, I've also been impressed by their work to build and scale a community, all while addressing racial inequity and bridging gender, gender identity, and economic gaps.

That is a valuable strategy in the context of marketing, and I expect their upward growth trend will continue to accelerate as the network effects of building a community kick in, something I've seen happen many times at the 3, 4 and 5-year marks in social impact organizations.

I’m pleased to serve as an advisor to Jasmine and Black Remote She and grateful for the opportunity to share my perspective on their work.

Tomorrow is the first day of my summer job where I get to Remote Work. And it just makes me incredibly happy.

Don't have to get up at 6.30am to work at 8.30am.

Don't have to worry about packing lunch.

Don't really have to worry about clothes or make up.

Will be home at 4pm instead of 6. Will still have hours in the day to live my life.

Don't have to force myself to sleep at 10pm.

Don't have to deal with the everpresent openly coughing or sneezing people in the bus, there is always at least one these days.

Don't have to deal with people who come to work while sick.

Will not get sick.

Nobody will interrupt my concentration every five minutes.

Can have hyperfocus-burst and breaks in between in peace and get a lot done without pretending to be neurotypical.

Can listen to music to focus.

Can go to the toilet in peace.

Don't have to spend any money.

No shoes.

No bra.

Probably no pants.

“The share of job seekers who relocated to take up a new position fell to 1.6%, the lowest level on record”

Factors:
- Remote/Hybrid Positions
- Higher interest rates -> especially when moving requires people to sell an existing home that’s financed with a mortgage locked in at low costs.

The anti-wfh/remote work thing blows my mind when it comes from VPs/execs.

I recall a VP at a previous company who didn’t allow any of his team to wfh, but he worked from home 1-2 times week because he lived an hour away and that was a crazy commute.

#RemoteWork, and the #RTO regression at Big Tech

It seems to me that this push for RTO has a few drivers.

1. Power
2. Stealth layoffs -- cost
3. Incompetent management

Clearly remote work was very successful, and these companies made more money than ever. So I think really it's a combination of all 3 reasons.

Once they get rid of the Silicon Valley salaries, then they can hire in other cheaper locations offshore or in the US. I think this is the meat of it.

Thoughts?

The post-pandemic shift to #remotework, particularly prevalent in tech, has naturally impacted downtown #SanFrancisco, especially with its over-reliance on commercial real estate, more severely than other cities.

This is almost never part of the national dialogue.

Chart from National Bureau of Economic Research March 2023 study on Remote Work across Jobs, Companies and Space. Trends show "Share of Postings Offering Hybrid or Fully Remote Work vary across US cities." While all have trended upward to varying degrees since 2019, San Francisco is shown as the clear outlier at roughly 30% of job postings being remote. The national average is about 1/3 of that at just over 10%.

This is such a strange article. On one side, a disgruntled cafe owner telling people to toughen up so his business will be ok, and commercial landlords getting worried. Then a couple of small paragraphs towards the end outlining the greater good.

I don't want to see any small businesses suffer but berating people for working from home ain't it.

#wfh #remotework

Some of the financial repercussions of WFH will be that wealth is redistributed, with workers more likely to buy their lunch from their suburban eatery, rather than in the city. There is also an environmental upside that accompanies a reduction in commuting.

Gruen says the impact of any major structural change in society will be cushioned by low unemployment, with levels currently near record lows.

What I find interesting about this new narrative is it completely ignores the data. CEOs “feel” or “believe” people are more productive in the office, at their desk, in a cubicle. But didn’t we also just boast the most productive few years even with Covid? So which is it?? Or is this really more about power and control than it is productivity? It’s about a lack of trust. #RemoteWork #Productivity
