Another tech firm Box’s CEO Aaron Levie has announced that the company will “remain a digital-first organization” moving forward. Box employees will be able to work “from anywhere” until at least January of 2021.
Box isn’t planning to ditch the office outright. In a blog post about the shift, Levie notes that plenty of people prefer working from an office, and that the company is aware of the “power of having office hubs where in-person communities, mentorship, networking, and creativity can happen.” Instead, they’ll be focusing on finding ways to make a hybrid setup — some remote, some in office — work. Meanwhile, they’re shifting all future all-hands meetings to virtual, adjusting their interview/onboarding process for remote hiring and offering stipends to employees looking to build out their home office setups.
More and more companies are promising to make work-from-home/work-from-anywhere setups work, albeit with varying levels of commitment.
