Is Remote Work Working Out?Nicholas Bloom | Econofact Despite concerns at the outset of the pandemic, working from home had a positive impact on productivity. Evidence from SWAA finds that hybrid working from home increases average productivity by about five percent. In fact, the productivity gains seem to be rising as companies and employees learn how to take advantage of remote work opportunities. Remote work and the end of super-commutingMike Elgan | Computerworld Before the pandemic, more than four million Americans suffered through a daily work commute of more than 90 minutes. Help is on the way. Are there enough remote jobs for everyone who wants one?Meredith Turits | BBC Millions of workers are on the hunt for remote jobs.

It turns out there is very little correlation between how good a resume is, and how the interview actually pans out. Workers Are Winning the Return-to-Office War Because They’re RightAdrian Wooldridge | Bloomberg The deepening clash between knowledge workers and companies is more than just a struggle over commuting and convenience. It is a clash over the meaning of work. If remote work is important in your organization…   Like, am I lazy or do you just hate yourself?
