The new trend is collaboration spaces with relaxation zones, as the rules of the game have changed in the post-pandemic world. Some companies invest in implementing bars and restaurants within their offices.

3. Flexibility in hiring

As employees already have a place to work – at home or elsewhere – companies need to change the layout of their offices. This phenomenon will affect the way people are managed.

Flexibility to continue working remotely is an important criterion, which influences more than the salary when accepting or not a job.

4. Relationship between boss and employee

For this hybrid system to be successful, managers will need to give more autonomy to employees, who will be evaluated according to their performance, and not by the hours worked.

5. Gender inequality

Not everyone wins in this story. Hybrid work can further increase gender inequality, as women with children are at risk of being discriminated against when hiring.
