5 workplace benefits employees want this year

Remote work has become the norm during the pandemic, and employees want to keep it that way: 88% of employees surveyed said they want to work for an organization that offers “complete flexibility” when it comes to their location and hours worked.

Additionally, 83% of employees would consider moving out of cities and other popular urban areas if they were allowed to work remotely the majority of the time, the survey found. While employers including Facebook and Slack have announced their employees can work remotely indefinitely, they’ve also suggested they’d make potential pay cuts for employees living in areas with a lower cost of living. Sixty-two percent of employees would be willing to take a paycut if it allowed them to work from home, according to a survey from software companies GoTo and LogMeIn.
