I’ve been looking for a new job as a software developer. The huge majority of job listings I see in my area are hybrid or remote. I just had an introductory phone call with Vizio (which didn’t specify the location type in the job listing). The recruiter told me that the job was fully on-site, which I told her was a deal breaker for me.

It makes me wonder how many other people back out after hearing that the job is on-site. And it makes me wonder why this wasn’t specified in the job description. I assume most people only want hybrid or remote jobs these days, right?

Anyways I was just wondering how many of you guys apply for on-site IT jobs? Hybrid is so much better, I don’t know why people would apply for on-site jobs unless they have no other options.

    There’s also a huge value to people working in the same space.

    Random conversations solve a lot of problems.

    If only we had decent VR headsets that were comfortable to wear all day I wouldn’t mind replicating that in a “virtual office”

    Unfortunately, even Apple wasn’t able to solve the comfortability problem.
