Pros remote work
You can work anywhere
Though the house, even in coworking, although on a park bench. In the office noise is sometimes difficult to focus and urgent tasks will not have to wait until colleagues disappear playful mood and the desire to publicly share their jokes with others.
Home, especially when it's quiet around, it's easier to reach the flow state. I do not know how to say in the presence of my productivity of 10-20 colleagues nearby.

In general, if for effective work you need peace and quiet, ideal udalonka. Laptop, network access - that's ready workplace.
Flexible schedule
Of course, everything depends on the position of your leadership, but usually remote employees are free to determine the boundaries of the working day - within reason, of course.
Urgently need somewhere to absent himself? No question, running from 7 am, and at 15:00 you are already free. For those who have small children, it is particularly valuable: the child need to take to kindergarten and pick from there, follow the clinic, if he is sick, and the head of your constant absences not encouraging.
We were lucky: in fact, you can set their own boundaries start and end of the working day. Flexible schedule is good that you can vary how much exhaust today: 8:00, 6 or 3 hours. For example, you need to go somewhere, so it works only a couple of hours, but the next day to catch up to eventually develop a 40-hour week.

For me the advantage udalonki in relative freedom: you can briefly escape for a day or to work hard and to finish with the earlier cases. For example, on Fridays often go to the country and to be released by the four nights, starting work for a couple of hours earlier.

No need to spend time on the way to the office and back
This advantage will be appreciated by the residents of big cities. When every day you spend a few hours on a fascinating journey from one end of town to the other, sooner or later start thinking: Well, why do it? Life passes, children grow up, and you still ride around and spend a lot of time in traffic jams.
With remote work much easier: while colleagues are yet to go to the office, you're already hard at work. To fully understand the beauty of this state of affairs in the winter, when you sit yourself at home, not at the bus stop morznesh surrounded by the same poor fellows.
Plus work from home: do not need to throw your body in the cold or rain and an hour and a half to go to the office. You just wake up, put on your favorite cozy hoodie, you drink kofeok and forward.

You can work with the best of the best
The lack of qualified employees - a pain familiar to many managers. Remote work saves you from having to select the best of bad options. If a candidate is right for you, it is not absolutely no matter where he lives - even in another city, even in another country.
Remote work is an advantage that you can conduct a competitive selection among all who will respond to your job. If you are not critical to the man sitting in the office, before you open all the labor market.
For example, we are in a city that does not produce the desired finished specialists we profile. In Ulyanovsk, there are no major online media, there are practically no people with significant experience in this industry - not developers, nor the editors nor esememschikov or designers. Everyone we hire here, we have to teach.
In the case of remote employees all the easier: they can often be more expensive, but it will be professionals with extensive experience.

Cons remote work
Blurred the boundaries of the working day
In the office, everything is clear: come, I worked 8 hours left. Home to do so is unlikely to succeed. At one point, you find that even 10 pm and you still vozishsya with an important task: I want to deal with it today, while the thought is gone.
At the time of the end of all this leaves even more than in the office. The few hours that previously took up the road, and now you devote to work. So it's not that simple time-saving.
When you work from home, the line between work and personal time is erased at all. You get used to it and no longer even notice it. If you do not pull yourself together, you can work for days on end without leaving your home and become a vegetable.
I usually try to do more complex tasks in the morning, so as not to delay until late at night. Some people prefer to work outside the home, such as coworking or libraries to tune in the desired fashion. I did not practice this, but I agree that it makes sense.

It is difficult to completely distract from the household chores
A typical situation: Once you have decided to work as all members of the household from you urgently need anything. Here is a rule: all the time. Of course, you can try to have fun at the same time to work, to cook and do the cleaning in fits and starts, but immediately warn: no good will come of this venture.
Another important point: if you are able to concentrate and immerse themselves in the process is a familiar working environment. Houses can with impunity to score on the case, to lie down on the couch, turn on your favorite TV series - but what, one does not see. Only now work one way or another you have to do in life.
At first it will be difficult to explain to friends and family that you're home if you sit at the computer, you can not play the trifles, and work the same as they are in their offices. You will be distracting to pull on any matter, call at an odd hour... You're home! Fortunately, my already accustomed to and treated with respect. When interviews take generally walk on tiptoe. :)

Lack of communication
Yes, in some companies there is such an atmosphere, the staff were on just about anything, if only to never see dear colleagues. But this is rarely the case. Most likely, after a while you will want to back to the office, to the people.
Communicate through instant messengers - a good thing, but still it is unlikely to replace the live chat. That does not run wild, occasionally go out, for example, work in coworking.
Lack of office communication - an important drawback. In any group has its own jokes, has its own atmosphere. As I come in contact with our office atmosphere, always seemed to me it's cool, and I do not have enough. Sometimes you sit all day in front of the monitor and did not exchange a word - grustnenko.

So in the end, remote work - good or so-so? Good. In any case, the objective advantages in such a format greater than the disadvantages. Cons that can seriously affect the working process linked to the ability of a single person to focus on the problems and not be distracted by extraneous stimuli.
It is difficult to overestimate the charm of remote work: the possibility of cooperation with the professionals, regardless of separating you distance, the freedom to choose yourself, how many will begin and end on time, saving time on the way to the office... will suit whether udalonka you? Try just worth, at least for the sake of interest.
Very soon we will tell many more interesting things about the remote, watch for new materials.
