Is working from home all it's cracked up to be?

As more and more companies move to a work from home program for Case Managers, I seem to have heard mixed results on this type of work situation lately. Sure gas is $3.50 a gallon and traffic is horrible and you can do work in your pj’s…but what about the social interaction that one generally gets from being around co-workers? Is the motivation spurred by teamwork synergy you generally feel working in the office lost as a result of the work from home situation? GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK! I would love to have some comments on this topic from you all! Please email them or post by hitting on the “Comments” link below this post.

Thanks, Steve

  1. Working at home does have its benefits- I currently do this, but you are right. Sometimes the social interaction can be a downer and I miss the cohesiveness of working amongst other nurses.

  2. Sorry Steve, have to say it is the best thing for me regardless of the down sides you mentioned. I love my work from home job!

  3. It is a blessing to be able to work from home....but....I do miss the social interactions at times. That's when I go in to the office for lunch with 'the girls'!
