Before 2020, remote work was a subject of some debate. 
While many organizations were hesitant to adopt telecommuting policies, opinions were gradually shifting in favour of remote work. Research was beginning to demonstrate that remote work made employees happier and increased productivity, while also saving businesses money on real estate and overhead. However, with COVID-19 came remote working on a scale the world has never seen. Organizations that had never once engaged in remote working suddenly migrated to a 100% virtual workplace. During 2020 and 2021, most businesses realized first-hand the pros and cons of remote work
During 2020, companies began to realize that remote work did have its advantages but also quickly saw its disadvantages. Pros included: freedom to work anytime, anywhere, no commute time, spending more time with family and fewer distractions from colleagues Cons: social isolation, collaboration challenges, difficulty to unplug, burn out and so on. For reasons such as these, quite a few employees have expressed a desire to return to work.
Working on location at an office or another worksite also had its pros and cons. But Onsite work, after all, has been the standard throughout human history. Remote working on the other hand, is a recent development that has only become possible thanks to digital innovation. Naturally, the benefits and drawbacks will differ depending on the individual – some people exclusively prefer onsite work, while others exclusively prefer offsite work. But benefits and drawbacks such as these can serve as a general guide for managers looking to modernize their workplace for the next normal – an era in which many suggest hybrid work will become ubiquitous.
