[Weekly Conversations] Work Environment ๐ผ
Hello everyone!ย
We just love having weekly discussions on all things Wrike and work with you ๐ค
Today, Iโd like to kick off a new topic for us to exchange ideas on - your current work environment!ย
We launched a new Community forum - Remote Collaboration - over two years ago. We wanted to provide a space for sharing tips and ideas while we embraced remote work.
Today, many organizations are considering or implementing more diverse ways to work - some businesses still work remotely, and others are fully back in their offices. A hybrid work environment where employees can work in the office and from home on different days is becoming more popular too.ย
Iโd be interested to discuss how you currently work! Personally, I enjoy hybrid work, because itโs great to collaborate with colleagues face to face, and at the same time, itโs nice not to have to come to the office every day.ย
Please share how you currently work or how you prefer to work ๐

I currently have a hybrid schedule. I have several online meetings on Mondays and work from home that day. Tues-Fri I am in the office with a combination of some meetings in person and some online. We have found that some of our meetings that were in person pre-Covid are more efficient via Zoom and have kept those as is.ย
We still have hybrid schedule where we show up 2x a week at the office. I like working from home especially when I am working on something that needs my full attention. Scheduled meetings during the days that I am working from home are done through MS teams. I like working hybrid, considering the gas price right now.:)
I'm on a hybrid schedule as well ... home 2 days and in office 3 days however other parts of our office got the option to go remote 100%. Depending on my daily call schedule, I do get the option to do another day at home.
Thanks a lot for sharing, everyone! ๐ค Looks like we are all enjoying hybrid work!ย

We are in the office currently, but were fully remote during COVID and had a hybrid schedule into the 'new normal' with alternating days to keep office traffic minimal...
Hoping for a hybrid schedule in the future!
After COVID, it turns out we were just as productive as before - and even more so in some cases!ย While I personally fully work remotely now - we have teams that come to the physical office as needed, and those who (by their job role) come in every day.ย It is a blessing to have that level of flexibility for sure!
Our company transitioned to a remote work policy, but also have in person meetings when it makes sense. If someone wants to go back to the office >3 days a week, they can and will get a desk assigned, but if you want to go in a couple times, you can request hoteling space. I personally am 100% remote now but occasionally pop into the office. I find that I am more productive at home now than in the office!ย
Thanks for sharing how you currently work! I personally agree with a lot that has been said above ๐

Our companies policy is dependent on your role. Some roles require 100% office work, others are hybrid and some are 100% remote. I am still 100% remote, but can go into the office for meetings where we need face to face collaboration.ย
That also makes sense Kevin Thalacker ๐

we are on a flexible hybrid model. 1-2 days homeoffice or 3-4 days homeoffice per week but with possibility to change between the two models.
Thanks for sharing Sven Passinger ๐ค

I have been at my new position for a month and a half and so far I am almost completely in the office, though There is flexibility to work from home as needed. I think I am productive either working remotely, or from home. It is nice to be able to get a few chores done through the day when working from home, but it is nice to be in the office when you have good coworkers.
I completely agree Hanna Zepeda ๐
