Hand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond.
Lean Out: Employees Are Accepting Lower Pay In Order To Work Remotely
Greg Rosalsky | NPR
In a new study, economists Jose Maria Barrero, Nicholas Bloom, Steven J. Davis, Brent H. Meyer, and Emil Mihaylov surveyed more than 500 American companies, asking them how they are using remote work.

Talking About Layoffs
Angela Riggs
We don’t really talk about layoffs. When you hear someone say they got laid off, it’s likely the next thing you hear from them is about the new job they’re starting. But we don’t talk about what it’s like in between those two events - which means we’re not acknowledging how traumatic it is to be laid off.

David Farrier | Webworm
It turns out posting anonymously on anonymous review site Glassdoor may be a thing of the past.
An American judge has just ruled in favour of kiwi toy company Zuru (valued at well over a billion dollars) — meaning it will be handed the details of former Zuru employees who posted anonymous reviews on the Glassdoor site.
One roommate is 85, the other is 27. Such arrangements are growing.
