Description

Of all the industries embracing long-term remote work, Software & IT companies are the ones offering workers the most flexibility, according to the latest LinkedIn Workforce Confidence Index.

Forty-eight percent of Software & IT employers will offer full-time remote options long-term, according to the survey of almost 9,000 professionals in the United States, while 46 percent of Transportation & Logistics employers will follow suit. On the flip side, the industries with the fewest full-time remote options for employees are Public Administration (25 percent) and Education (31 percent).

While many companies are still ironing out whether they’ll offer full-time remote work at all (and how), others have taken a strong stance on hybrid work that marries the benefits of a shared office with the flexibility craved by potential workers.

Today, we have our VP of Business Operations Eva Maloney joins us to talk about what makes Software and Tech companies so compelling to work for, what remote tech workers are striving for in a job, and the new challenges of staffing in a Work-From-Anywhere world.
