If you are looking for a silver lining to the pandemic, one is the positive impact it has had on remote work. Before the “largest remote work experiment in history” many employers were skeptical of their teams working from home. After years of avoiding it, 2020 gave many employers no choice but to have their employees work from home. Now the world is beginning to re-open, but many employees don’t want to return to their pre-pandemic work environment.
