Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has forced information technology (IT) companies to work remotely by enlisting the help of home-based IT professionals. Nevertheless, many companies and the individuals who work for them were not prepared for the shift; therefore, they are currently dealing with limitations and challenges. Additionally, they lack a thorough understanding of the requirements for remote work as well as its benefits and drawbacks. The benefits and drawbacks of remote work for IT workers are discussed in light of our findings. We also talk about the important aspects that IT companies should think about when deciding whether or not to use remote work.
