Just started a new job that was advertised as hybrid. Went through the whole interview process with the understanding it would be one day a week in the office, and I did my one day in the office went through onboarding and picked up my equipment and I’ve not been in since.
First hour in and my manager mentions almost as an aside that they haven’t actually been in the office for months. The “hybrid” element is apparently something they’d “like” to implement at some point, but there’s no timeline, no plan, and no pressure. It’s full remote for the foreseeable.
I didn’t negotiate this. It wasn’t a selling point in the offer. I just happened to land in a team where nobody goes in. For context I’m coming from an in-person role so hybrid was a step up for me already, working from home is a bit of an adjustment, but I’m not exactly complaining.
Anyone else stumbled into remote work without actually asking for it? Feels like finding money in an old jacket.
Do you have any tips for someone new to remote work?
