Most employees believe that working in-office provides them with better career opportunities, but it is possible to work remotely and thrive professionally.
“It’s more important than ever to be a self-starter if you want to succeed in the digital era of work,” WorkForce Software CEO Mike Morini says. “You have to take initiative to make connections with the people you work with, and network digitally to set yourself up for future career moves.”
And as more workers move away from traditional 9 to 5 rosters and in-office workplaces, it’s “drive, skills and potential” that matter more than an employee’s geographic location for hiring decisions.
Plus, for all the challenges of working from home, many employees actually enjoy the flexibility that comes with it—and that pays off in the long-run.
