Looking for some advice...Are Hybrid jobs here to stay forever in the big Multinationals? (buying a house, commute concerns)
Is hybrid work here to stay? as in at most 3 days in the office. I'm a junior/early in career (a bit over 2 yoe) so my employment opportunities are more limited.
Currently I can work remotely or commute if I like, I enjoy commuting as I'm less than 15 minutes away and there's an awesome gym nearby so I try go atleast 3 days a week. Super handy etc etc, but I also pretty much live in a prison cell as a very temporary accommodation while I look to buy a place (exaggerating, very small room in friends house)
I'm looking at a house at the moment and its literally perfect, but it's 1 hour 5 minutes from my current place of work. and If I were to change jobs to somewhere like Meta or Google or whatever, further into the city its more like 1hr20 (or if traffic is particularly bad 1hr50 yeeesh)
I...think I can handle a 1hr commute each way if I'm only going in 2 or 3 days a week, plus this house is off the n81 and I ride a motorcycle so its a very enjoyable stretch of road that I'm on all the time anyways! But 5 days a week? over 10hours commuting in all weather (I do have a car but still)....yeesh. Idk.
