Because I work with customers and they’re naturally spread around geographically, there’s nothing that would do it. There’s just no reason.
They would need to build an office within a ten minute walk from my home.
Higher salary, free lunch, commute costs covered. And should be hybrid instead of all five days in the office (Tues-Thurs).
Money. Lots of it. As in double.
Exceptionally flexible working hours (so I don’t have to go in or leave during rush hour) along with an exceptional increase in pay and a commitment that time in office would actually be used for productive time (any meetings can be done remotely and often are done with remote members anyway).
Actually, as I think about it, the only thing that would lure me back to the office would be an open door policy related to being there, where I’d see myself there maybe 5% of the time. shrug
I interviewed with a company with 6 hours of "core hours". Total nonstarter. Core hours, if they exist, should be as short as possible.
- 4 day work week
- 6 hour work day
- 120k min salary
- Lunch provided
- Home cleaning service provided though benefit plan
- I would need an office (no cube/open concept)
- Casual dress code
What would bring me in? My commute counts as working hours. Fully pay commuting cost. My goals lessened to make up for the lower productivity in the office. Private office and private bathroom. Free healthy meals delivered. That might bring me back.
Nothing. Reduce my hours, pay me less, but for take wfh away or I'm done. Nothing can compete with wfh.
Back to the office? In my country almost nobody left the office, even when the pandemic was at its peak lol.
What country?
Mexico.
Double my salary. Even then It'd be tough. Working from home has so many benefits. Plus my entire team is in a different state, so going into the office would be pointless.
Better pay, time for travel calculated in work hours, better company food, better work desk.
A much better setup than my home one. A private office with sound dampening. Dual 4K+ monitors. A large wall mounted TV for casting training videos or collaborating. A coffee and desert cart.
A 50% salary increase. I lose hours a week commuting, thats my life being taken away.
Not to mention getting sick because co-workers come in sick, the loudness of stupid open office spaces, douchebags who wont bathe before work...
The office sucks ass and my house is a much better environment for me working.
Why does Windows Update take weeks for you? Even on 1990’s dial-up, the typical 2-3 GB of patches would only take 5 days to download.
I have no idea. It is funneled through something the IT department setup. I think they fucked it up.
