@raptor85 @PavelASamsonov Things I noticed, I had 300 or more less dollars in my bank account. I had to work more hours, and my workday started much earlier. I was also way more isolated from my colleagues, productivity went down, while work load increased. On top of that, I had to create a space in my home in order to work. 2 comments
@raptor85 @PavelASamsonov Oh, I am highly efficient. The issue is no ability to walk over and quickly ask a question so it turns into a meeting during WFH and slowly but surely your schedule has meeting creep. It might have sky rocketed, but all studies are showing a decline. What makes up for it is people working longer hours. Instead of 9 - 5, I was working 8 - 7. So, really work starts to invade personal time as you’re trying to make up for the extra meetings. |

@PCIB @PavelASamsonov interesting, company-wide our productivity skyrocketed, we also were able to start hiring candidates in other states with better qualifications which we hadn't even looked into before. Most of us got considerable raises due to the productivity boost, my pay went up by nearly 1/3. We're on teams all the time so isolation isn't an issue.
It does require a mindset that works well with it though, if you can't manage yourself you'll do terrible WFH.
