Discussion: Viability and Long-Term Implications of Permanent Remote Work for Digital Nomads
Recent trends indicate a shift among various industries toward permanent remote work arrangements. As digital nomads, the feasibility of maintaining productivity, professional growth, and stable income streams under such policies is of high interest.
What are the experiences and insights regarding:
- The sustainability of permanent work-from-home contracts with global employers (including compliance, taxation, and onboarding processes)?
- Strategies to mitigate potential isolation, burnout, or decreased collaboration over time?
- The impact on access to benefits (such as insurance, retirement plans, and continuing education resources) compared to traditional employment?
- How are organizations adapting performance management and career development for a fully distributed workforce?
Peer-reviewed studies or case examples detailing best practices are appreciated.
