About this listen

New research from early 2026 challenges the narrative that remote work is declining. An NBER study of 8,000 U.S. workers across 2025 shows employees at post-2015 firms work from home nearly twice as often as those at pre-1990 companies, with younger CEOs linked to higher remote rates. FlexJobs data reports a 22% spike in remote hiring and a 3% rise in fully remote roles in Q4 2025, with 67% of listings at senior level. Surveys show most workers value flexibility over pay increases, pointing to structural, generational change rather than short-term retreat.
