Sallie Krawcheck, CEO of Ellevest, an investment and financial literacy platform for women, has been a vocal advocate for remote work.
The various benefits — lower fixed costs, a larger talent pool, and added flexibility for women and under-represented groups — factor into why Ellevest has remained fully remote since the pandemic.
Not many people do it, and you can't run into each other at the coffee machine when you're on Zoom," Krawcheck said.
Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon has referred to remote work as "an aberration."
Meta , which vocally embraced fully remote work, now has many employees back three days a week.
