Please, I’m just genuinely curious.
But I’ll like to help anyone wanting to answer by categorizing the reasons into like 4: You can choose any, or come up with your own reasons.
- You believe remote work is just a trend, and will die soon
- You think it’s just a bubble waiting to burst
- You think remote work will never be successful
- You believe remote work is still in its infancy/ (it’s early) and you don’t want to jump on the train just yet
- You’re just uncertain about the whole remote work thing
I’m thinking of using your reasons to work on a bigger content (ebook) for my long piece here.
As a fully remote employee I feel all of this. Have you ever listened to the founder of Automattic’s podcast, “Distributed”? It has some good thoughts
