re: Dell announces work from home - no promotions

If they want to keep working from home, staff can opt to go fully remote. But that option has a downside: fully remote workers will not be considered for promotion, or be able to change roles.

I embraced this philosophy a couple of years ago. Met with each employee individually to sell them on the professional development of being around coworkers if they sought to become managers.

I never said I would never promote a teleworker, but it led to more visible teamwork in the office.

Unfortunately/fortunately, some newer employees left for jobs that could promise more telework.
