Forty Percent Of Our Men Work Abroad

By | December 20, 2023

In our recent “Should we ditch the office?” Survey, we asked over 1,000 employees a variety of questions around how they’d like to work in the future. The results were fascinating—giving us key insights on everything from how remote working preferences differ between age groups to the perks that employees would most appreciate when they’re working from home.

But why? Does this mean that almost half the country wants to up sticks and work from the beach from now on?

Below, we discuss what the survey responses told us about “work wanderlust”, and what this means for employers.
