Moving to: m/AskMbin!

I got forced to go back three days a week. I grew resentful and started working less efficiently out of spite, then I asked for more money and got denied, so I quit.

Found a new job a month later, 30h a week for only ~10% less pay than I had with 40h, so 4 day work week and 90% WFH. Somehow I enjoy going into the office now though, maybe it‘s the AC, maybe cause I work less, maybe cause I‘m not forced to do it. So I‘ve been going in most days.

I'm fully remote now. During covid I was working somewhere else. They forced everyone to go back to a hybrid model, where we were expected to share small workspaces with three or four other coworkers with a rotating schedule. There was no reason for someone in my position to be in the office. It was not ideal. After a few weeks I ended up putting in my notice and found another fully remote position. It's wonderful. I love working from home.

I go in twice a week, because I find being able to talk to people face to face both quite productive and I'm an extravert who likes company. Plus, I'm in London and I actually enjoy the 45 minute cycle.

Our studio is still allowing remote work. I’m one of the freaks that likes to come in and see everyone (I’ve been working with some of these people for almost 20 years).I miss seeing everybody. I don’t like working remote myself. I wish more people were coming in. But I understand the appeal of avoiding the commute.

I'm still nearly 100% remote. We have like two events a year we need to show up at in person.

I would change jobs again if this changes; my goal is to move out to the countryside in another 2.5 to 3 years and do some small-scale farming and such, and there are really no IT jobs in the Japanese Countryside that are anywhere near what I do now in terms of interesting content, competent management, and pay.

been fully remote since 2008. It was fun to watch everyone else learn how to do that :)

I started a job during the pandemic that doesn't even have an office in my province so I'm not going back to the office. I'm super happy about it, I can't even picture myself being in an office anymore. I have so much more free time without having the commute and being able to do chores while on the clock

I've been full time remote since 2021. Been loving it since I'm a hermit and an introvert.
I've made almost no change in lifestyle or routine. I work in a pharma/biotech-adjacent industry.

Technically hybrid but have been full remote for the most of the year thanks to a neck injury. Commuting on the train wrecks me from my neck jostling around.

I've been remote over four different roles with my current organisation and have had zero reason to ever set foot in the office.

Software engineer here. Been WFH since before COVID, now in my third WFH position. My current company let go of the leases on all its offices. There would be a mutiny if they tried to make us come back.

We've hired a very geographically diverse team over the past couple years so most of us wouldn't even have a location to work from, even if the company hadn't let go of its leases.

My team is hybrid, but I try and be in office most days! I’m lucky that my manager doesn’t mind if we do work from home when things come up.

As long as the work gets done, that’s what matters! Which is how I honestly think it should be.

My employer forced us back to the office Tuesday through Thursday. The person who made the decision is a VP who works 100% from home. My office of only ten people are already "remote" from the home office across the country. We worked fully remote for two years during the pandemic with no issues.

Love it.

I used to work on secure sites for defence work. Honestly, not going to go back for that stuff any more. No more travelling and all the headaches that comes with.

Fully work from home now. Any job that expects me to work in an office is not a job I will even bother to interview for.

Full time remote but management want us to be in 2 days a week. I work with a team from another country and will never meet them in person but the middle management wants to see me once a week. I check managers calender and choose one day unless I'm having lunch with some other college.
Totally worthless decision. 40min commute.

Software dev

I'm still full remote.
On a very rare occasion, I might have to go into the office, but otherwise I'm working from home.

During covid I learned I really enjoyed working from home, so I talked about it with my employer.
At first I only got day or 2 at home per week, but eventually I was allowed to work fully from home.
