Sunny Kim · Accepted Answer

Working in a comfortable environment without the stress of commuting is great, but it comes with the downside of blurring the boundaries between work and personal life.

Cedric · Answer

Working from home offers flexibility and can improve work-life balance by saving commuting time and creating a comfortable environment. On the downside, it may lead to feelings of isolation, blurred boundaries between work and personal life, and potential distractions at home. Striking a balance with clear routines and communication can help maximize its benefits while minimizing challenges.

Answer

for the positive aspects, wfh is very flexible, we can adjust what time we should working or take a rest, and wfh can take double job (wfh too). It's good actually for people that don't like socialize, don't like to meet someone. And because of lacking socialize, our networking and communication with people become less. Because we always work at home, no communication, no socializing, and when we want to communicate with others, it kinda hard
