[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Telework is a must for me.  I would not entertain any job that doesn't offer it.  Where I work it's a huge part of the culture.  Everyone teleworks regularly and I love it.  I had multiple job offers before this job and telework is one of the reasons I decided to go with my current company.  I think a good work environment definitely makes people work harder and I'm definitely more loyal to my employer because they treat us so well and telework is apart of that. [/quote]

Totally agree. With the traffic and commuting issues (metro) around here - it just makes sense. Not saying 5 days a week as I do find value in interacting with the team - but I am very wary of a company who doesn't allow 1 or 2 days a week. Just such a time saver for me - not only commuting time, but time spent getting ready and just mental energy getting out the door and riding the metro etc.

Also, on days when you can't get in (Pope visit, snow days, etc.), you are set up and used to working from home.[/quote]

Yes. Those days can cause undue burden on employees and loss in productivity. Those are very real issues for people. Snowmageddon was over a week, wasn't it? I worked a ton from home. Nothing got done at my DHs federal office. [/quote]
