Remote work or Onsite?

I'll say it depends... Depends on your product, your culture, your vision, your current company size.. Some companies work remotely really well... eg: Basecamp, Hotjar, etc. Whereas some work hybrid because it suits their cuture and employees more.

Remote work offers flexibility and a better work-life balance, while onsite work fosters team collaboration and a stronger company culture. It ultimately depends on individual preferences and company needs.

Remote work offers unparalleled flexibility and access to global talent, but onsite work fosters stronger team cohesion and spontaneous collaboration. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the specific needs and culture of the organization.

As a beginner/fresher, I find 'onsite' to be the super helpful in learning. You can then always go remote.

Had an awesome experience in both remote and onsite jobs. The key for nailing it is organising work differently. Like recently talked with VP of HR, whose team has an awesome policy: covering travel expenses for teams so they can meet offline occasionally. Well-thought organisation of work makes or brakes both options

I think hybrid/remote brings the benefits of accessing a greater talent pool but comes with the challenges of coordination.

I mainly prefer a hybrid approach. Some days, I am more efficient working from home, but on others, I believe being onsite helps me gain deeper focus.

I prefer remote. I believe that organisations can take steps to increase engagement and interaction in a remote environment also. It also provides everyone with the flexibility of involving according to their comfort level. I love the time and freedom remote work allows me rather than wasting those hours commuting.

From my experience, it works best if everyone is remote or everyone is onsite (including hybrid onsite). I actually think remote work can reduce the "office politics" burden that runs rampant through onsite cultures. At all of my onsite jobs in my career, I paid a penalty for refusing to play politics. At my remote jobs, there is a much greater emphasis on intentionality and output. Don't interrupt someones day with a meeting unless it is necessary. People are judged on the quality of their work rather than their ability to schmooze.

I believe most business owners prefer to gather their team members all in one place, but employees kindda like remote working I guess.

Is there any hybrid option? Right now I'm working remotely and that means flexibility while being more productive. Although, for me, human relations are a must everywhere and having a coffee brake meeting with your coworkers is not as human as I would love.

I think both remote work and onsite have their pros and cons. Personally, I prefer a hybrid approach like the one at Parallel. Here’s why: Remote Work Pros: Flexibility: Helps with work-life balance. Productivity: Fewer distractions can mean more focused work. Onsite Work Pros: Collaboration: Easier to brainstorm and solve problems face-to-face. Culture: Builds stronger team relationships and company culture. A hybrid model offers the best of both worlds, allowing for flexibility while maintaining team cohesion and collaboration. It’s all about finding the right balance!

Definitely remote work, especially working from home, cuz home home, sweet home!😁

I recommend onsite

Remote work supports a better work-life blend

Hybrid sounds like a great balance.

Onsite work helps new hires integrate faster

Onsite work is great for immediate feedback

Remote work gives more control over the environment.

Remote is nice. You can be in the comfort of your home, be with your family and not be stressed by traffic and noise.
