good thing it reduces productivity! we produce too much shit anyway.

My work actually added a productivity tracking tool during the forced remote work during the pandemic and actually found there's no reduction in productivity. My CEO decided to remodel our office to an event space to ensure there's no way for us to go back to mandatory work from office.

A lot of people seem to just be reacting to this without reading and understand. Granted, Forbs does not go sufficiently in depth to the findings to make this easy.

From what I've read on this, the underlying study here has valuable information that we can all use, understand, and digest.

Does your role require a lot of colaberation? You may need to ensure you have something better than email and phones to replace your ability to talk to someone who would have otherwise sat next to you.

Do you have a lot of junior employees? You will likely need to spend more effort on ensuring they get the quality training they need.

Like.... Sure. A CEO could easily read the title of this article and decide to just bring everyone back to the office without thinking critically. But that doesn't mean we should do the opposite we should be arming ourselves with this information so we can know how to counter our boss's arguments to ensure we can get what we want.

Fuck Forbes!

I’m sure it does for people who aren’t motivated.

But those same people don’t work in office either, they just walk around and bullshit all day.

I am way more productive at home than I am in office. Partly purposefully out of spite, and partly because my home work space is better in every way than my office environment. Quieter, more comfortable, better equipment, better internet, even better resilience because of my UPSes.

That's a lie. I can never relax at work so I can never jump in at 100percent

If commercial property developers could hurry up and go bust we could be done with this sooner.

I skimmed through it real quick, but I didn’t see anything where they defined how they measured productivity. Did I miss that part?

How else will they justify spending money on these huge office buildings (monuments to capitalists) to their investors if you aren’t there pretending to be busy?

Productivity skyrocketed when we implemented work from home. Employee retention also improved. Keeping it was a no brainer.

I find this really hard to believe. I like going in to work, but I don't work in a standard office (engineer on industrial site). If I were to be working in an office all day though, no way would I prefer that to home.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I feel like the only people who read Forbes and take it at face value have never worked a day in their lives.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Funny that I've seen tons of research saying the opposite. Enough to say, at a minimum, that the verdict is still very much out on the link between productivity and remote work. But I only see the negative ones being published now, whereas during COVID I only saw the positive ones.
