Survey Highlights Tensions Surrounding Remote Work

GoodHire’s 2022 remote survey, conducted August 25–27, highlighted ongoing shifts and rifts in the workforce, with several findings contrasting notably with results from the 2021 survey. 

Nearly three-quarters of U.S. workers say companies should pay in-office workers more than remote workers. 

Meanwhile, 68% were concerned their manager would view full-time office workers as high performers and full-time remote workers as lazier.

Flipping the script? 44% of surveyed workers noted they prefer working from home—a 24% decrease from the 2021 survey.

Yet 33% stated they would either quit or start applying for a new job immediately if remote options were not available. However, that number is down from 45% in 2021. 

Four days in beats five days out: 54% of 2022 survey-takers said that they would prefer a four-day workweek that required them to be in the office over a fully remote five-day workweek.

Outlook: The survey results are the latest in an ongoing stream of data showing that worker preferences are quickly evolving as we shift into a post-pandemic environment during economic uncertainty.
