Would you choose to work from home permanently if you had to take a 20% pay cut?

By wonderful sponsors Loch Associates Group

Would you choose to work from home permanently if you had to take a 20% pay cut? This is
what we asked our followers on social media, with 87% of them saying no.
 
As you may have seen, Stephenson Harwood has offered this choice to their non-partners
and have made it clear that if someone opts for this then they are unlikely to be made a
partner in the future. Quite a choice to make. The firm has said they didn’t expect many
employees would take the 20% pay cut and that it was aimed more at employees who had
moved out of London and therefore have lower living costs.
 
Pam was on Radio Wales recently discussing this and also the shift in the power between
employers and employees. To listen to Pam Loch’s discussion on the matter, follow this link
