The Next Normal For IT Talent Is Remote Work

IT remote work

Even before the global pandemic, most IT companies used to call themselves a “remote first” organization. Following this global pandemic, many businesses follow tech companies’ infrastructures to switch to long-term hybrid/remote models.

According to a Global Workplace Analytics analysis (2020), 56% of the current US workforce have a job that can be a full remote position. A Gallup poll (2021) confirms that 3 in 5 employees now working remotely don’t want to work in the office again. COVID and safety measures aren’t the only reasons behind this preference. Avoiding to commute and a better work-life balance are the top reasons to stay remote. 

CIOs and tech leaders are testing a once-in-a-generation pivot towards remote models. From new startups to global enterprises, managers offer the safe home office alternative to traditional office models. To enter into the new normal, companies will need to adopt new technologies and new approaches at each level of their organization.
