After Covid, SO MANY people have reevaluated how they feel about working from home and what they prefer to do going forward. So much so, that companies will be forced to adjust their policies if they want to keep attracting top talent.
Based on the conversations I have been having, actual work/life balance, remote work, flexible schedules are becoming just as important as salary and vacation days for so many professionals.
While companies are free to mandate whatever policies they want in the short-term, they will not have this luxury in the long-term if employees’/candidates’ desire for better arrangements becomes a deal breaker.
While not every role can be done outside of an office, many can, and have been for the last 15 months (or more in other cases).
The name of the game is flexibility and many companies will need to embrace this ‘new normal’ if they want to compete for talent once this pandemic is gone for good.
