Companies With Flexible Remote Work Policies Outperform On Revenue Growth::According to a new report, companies with flexible remote work policies outperform firms with more restrictive policies when it comes to revenue growth rates.
Watch everyone forget that correlation doesn’t equal causation when it confirms their biases.
I can only speak for myself. I work a hybrid schedule. I am far more productive when I work at home because I am much more comfortable and much less distracted.
For me it is the other way around. At home too much distraction. In the office I can focus.
Why is why flexible hybrid schedules are the ideal. Let workers pick what work best for them.
Usually the same for me, although I can still be productive at home.
However, zoom meetings are terrible. May as well just have a phone call. But you can’t have 6 people hash out a problem online like you can around a conference table.
In the pre COVID days when office was expected, I only was in the office 3.5 days a week. But it worked because everyone was there most of the time and for important meetings. It all broke with fully remote hiring during the pandemic. For those 3 days I’m in, only 33 percent of the team is in. What’s the point at that point when I can’t find a conference room to take constant remote calls. Hybrid everything is the worst of both worlds.
It strongly suggests either causation (WFH -> RG), reverse causation (RG -> WFH), or common causation (Some other factor ->WFH&RG).
