pandemic demonstrated we can work from home without any significant impact on productivity or perhaps even with some increment of it.

It mainly depends on the ability of manager to follow our work and this is a problem in Eataly: generally good workers, mediocre mid level and terrible managers.

More: at $work recently decided to move into a mega open space building with ~100 people per floor when in the rest of western countries they finally discovered open spaces are counter productive: to concentrate on my job I had (the few days I'm at office) to wear my headset with high level music to clear the loud of coworkers.

Currently I have only one coworker of my same team working in Rome so it doesent change a lot were I am.

Companies with bit more salt in the head can rearrange themselves to save a lot of money with a diffuse remote work policy.

My home station is better, I made it with some decent wood, coffe is by far better, my little balcony is just here, when is hot I can dress the way I like.

If you ear about a full remote, partime, perl job I'm here :)
