Top Picks
Hand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond.
The hybrid workplace probably won’t last
Jon Levy | The Boston Globe
Having some people work from home while their teammates are in the office runs counter to much of what makes organizations tick.
As a CEO, I worry about the erosion of office culture with more remote work
Cathy Merrill | The Washington Post
While remote working is certainly industry- and job-dependent, and the future employment scene will probably be some type of hybrid, the CEOs I have spoken with fear erosion of collaboration, creativity and culture.
How to negotiate continuing to work remotely?
megasquid | Hacker News
Like many of you I am working remotely due to COVID. I want to continue working remotely, but my job wants me in the office next month. How would you negotiate this with your employer? Have any of you already had this conversation? How did it go?
These beautiful Italian towns will pay you to work remotely
Silvia Marchett | CNN
In an attempt to lure newcomers, Santa Fiora in Tuscany and Rieti in Lazio will pay up to 50% of the rent of anyone who decides to move and telecommute on a long-term basis.
Rents are already relatively low, so the deal is potentially very attractive, but make no mistake, this is no paid vacation.
Why do we buy into the 'cult' of overwork?
Bryan Lufkin | BBC
Overwork culture is thriving; we think of long hours and constant exhaustion as a marker of success. Given what we know about burnout, why do we do give in?
How to Hire Someone You’ve Never Met in Person
David Burkus | Harvard Business Review
Hiring has always been one of the most vital elements of a leader’s role. Finding the right person to do a job is tough and likely the single biggest decision most managers make because of how it impacts the team’s success or failure. Add to it the complexities of hiring remotely, without really meeting someone in-person, and you’ve got yourself a unique challenge.
Workplace Wellbeing Is a Scam
Colette Shade | Tribune
As conditions at work deteriorate, the number of ‘employee wellbeing schemes’ is on the rise – but no amount of self-care can substitute for a living wage, manageable hours and secure employment.
Remote work needs to be permanent
Software will bridge these worlds…
We love the environment but you can’t work remote
