Recent research found that fully remote workers were less productive than office workers.
A recent analysis of multiple studies by the Stanford economist Nick Bloom, a leading remote-work expert, found that fully remote workers were 10% to 20% less productive than their in-office counterparts.
But the research has found, on average, those working in the office at least some of the time are more productive .
Even Zoom, which is synonymous with remote work, recently called some employees back to the office for at least two days a week.
Bloom recently estimated 60% of Americans worked fully in person, 30% worked in person between one and four days per week, and 10% worked fully remotely.
