There Is No Value in Coming to the Office: Why Remote Work and Hiring Remote Are the Future of Productivity
By Bobby Darvish - darvishintelligence.blogspot.com
As an Iranian-American ex-Muslim Christian conservative with over 30 years of experience in cybersecurity, I have seen the corporate world transform in ways that are not always for the better. One of the most pressing issues we face today is the insistence by many corporations to return to the office, despite the clear advantages of remote work. This push is often driven by outdated corporate cultures or, worse yet, the increasing influence of woke ideology, which values conformity and groupthink over true productivity and innovation. In my view, there is no real value in returning to the office, and the future belongs to those who embrace remote work.
The Benefits of Remote Work
Over the years, I have held leadership roles, including serving as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and Senior Cybersecurity Engineer for several major organizations, such as Freddie Mac, JP Morgan Chase, and Cisco Systems. Through these roles, I have witnessed firsthand how remote work enhances productivity, increases job satisfaction, and reduces unnecessary expenses for both companies and employees.
When working remotely, I can focus on delivering results without the distractions of office politics, unnecessary meetings, or the need to conform to corporate social programming. I have seen my teams achieve greater success by working remotely than they ever did when confined to the office. According to a Stanford study, remote workers are 13% more productive than their in-office counterparts . This increase in productivity comes from fewer distractions, a more flexible work schedule, and the ability to focus on critical tasks without the constant interruptions that are common in office environments.
Woke Cult Corporate Programming
One of the most significant downsides to returning to the office is the corporate culture that comes with it. In recent years, we have seen an increasing amount of woke programming infiltrating the workplace. From diversity and inclusion training that focuses more on identity politics than on merit to the constant bombardment of leftist ideologies, the office has become a place where freedom of thought is stifled.
As a conservative, I have always valued individual responsibility, meritocracy, and the freedom to express my beliefs without fear of retribution. Unfortunately, the corporate environment today is often hostile to these values. In-office environments tend to enforce groupthink, where employees feel pressured to conform to the latest ideological trends. Whether it’s through mandatory sensitivity training or constant virtue signaling, the corporate office has become a battleground for the woke cult. I, for one, do not want to be subjected to this toxic culture, and I know many others feel the same.
Remote Work as an Escape from Woke Culture
Remote work allows me to escape the influence of woke corporate culture. When working remotely, I can focus on my job without being subjected to constant ideological lectures or feeling like I have to walk on eggshells. I am free to focus on what matters: results.
Moreover, hiring remotely has allowed me to build more diverse and effective teams. Not “diverse” in the sense of identity politics, but in the sense of hiring people from different geographical locations and backgrounds who bring a variety of skills and perspectives. Remote hiring has allowed me to hire the best talent from around the world, rather than being restricted to a single location. This has led to better outcomes for my projects and greater innovation.
The Future of Work
The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us that remote work is not only possible but preferable in many cases. Many companies have realized that they can save millions of dollars by reducing their office footprint while maintaining or even increasing productivity. As we move forward, it is clear that remote work is here to stay. A Gallup poll showed that 8 in 10 people prefer some form of remote work . As someone who has thrived in a remote environment, I see no reason to go back to the office.
The future of work belongs to those who embrace flexibility and innovation, not those who cling to outdated practices or ideologies. I will continue to champion remote work because it not only benefits businesses but also frees us from the shackles of woke corporate programming. As a conservative who values freedom, meritocracy, and individual responsibility, I see remote work as the key to a more productive and free society.
In conclusion, remote work offers unparalleled benefits in terms of productivity, job satisfaction, and freedom from toxic corporate cultures. I will continue to advocate for remote work and remote hiring as the future of a productive, innovative, and free workforce.
