About Session

Challenges of working remotely. It’s easy to look at all the benefits of a remote job. But with these benefits, comes the challenges. A person working remotely has to be his own boss as there’s no one looking over your shoulder to get things done. Not only you need to be self disciplined but also you need to be efficient at what you do. You also need to take care of your health and make sure to get out of your house every day as there’s no boundary between work and personal life. Most remote workers quit their job and move to an office job because they fail to discipline themselves. So, remote working is definitely not for everyone! But in this session, the speaker will share his experiences to give you some insight on how a company with more than 600 employees works without an office.
