Which Work Model Better For Techies- WFH, WFO, or Hybrid?

Isn’t it amusing how certain questions have gained importance lately? Say, for example, the 9 to 5 working model has always been a thing for all businesses. Then, one day COVID happened and the whole business world changed in no time. The usual model of working from office was no more an option for companies, including the IT industry.

Fast forward to 2022, today we are discussing what model is best for the IT industry.

When Work from Home (WFH) became the new normal, almost every company out there grappled to accept the transformation. Like all professionals, techies had to flex their working style because working in a virtual environment was no longer limited to cubicle discussions and brainstorming in boardrooms.

Now that things are getting better, a big question that has arisen for the IT industry is- Work from home, office or hybrid? Let’s find an answer for the same!

A hybrid work model is the key to balance employee engagement and productivity. In such a work model, no techie will find return to work as a punishment.
