The classic guide to working from home and why we should embrace a virtual office, from the bestselling authors of Rework “A paradigm-smashing, compulsively readable case for a radically remote workplace.”—Susan Cain, New York Times bestselling author of Quiet Does working from home—or anywhere else but the office—make sense? In Remote, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, the founders of Basecamp, bring new insight to the hotly debated argument. While providing a complete overview of remote work’s challenges, Jason and David persuasively argue that, often, the advantages of working “off-site” far outweigh the drawbacks. In the past decade, the “under one roof” model of conducting work has been steadily declining, owing to technology that is rapidly creating virtual workspaces. Today the new paradigm is “move work to the workers, rather than workers to the workplace.” Companies see advantages in the way remote work increases their talent pool, reduces turnover, lessens their real estate footprint, and improves their ability to conduct business across multiple time zones. But what about the workers? Jason and David point out that remote work means working at the best job (not just one that is nearby) and achieving a harmonious work-life balance while increasing productivity. And those are just some of the perks to be gained from leaving the office behind. Remote reveals a multitude of other benefits, along with in-the-trenches tips for easing your way out of the office door where you control how your workday will unfold. Whether you’re a manager fretting over how to manage workers who “want out” or a worker who wants to achieve a lifestyle upgrade while still being a top performer professionally, this book is your indispensable guide.

Getting started guide for enabling remote work

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 6 December 2021

Verified Purchase

Overall the book gives a feel of its very easy to build and manage a remote team. We get to know the common hurdles and solutions to handle them. Having said that all the solutions are based on assumption that you have responsible people at all positions. There is shortage of that kind of people and the solutions suggested in the book won't work.

A comprehensive collection of guidelines for working remotely, but somewhat underwhelming

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 3 August 2016

Verified Purchase

This book is a comprehensive collection of guidelines for working remotely. It covers all aspects: the advantages of remote working, the disadvantages of working in an office, common objects to remote and how to address them, what to do and not to do when working remotely, how to hire people who are a good fit for working remotely, and so on.

The book is a comprehensive collection of techniques for working remotely. I feel it was worth my time to read it, since working remotely is a reality today. I came close to starting a startup with a remote cofounder, in fact, in addition to working remotely for many years before that, so I think knowing how to work well remotely is an essential skill in today's world.

The book is written in a very clear, crisp and concise manner, as is typical of 37 signals's great book Rework. So it's quick to finish.

The book does seem a little one-sided in its arguments. It tries to pass remote off as having tons of advantages and few disadvantages. That's a little hard to believe. A more balanced approach would have worked better.

For example, this books talks of the disadvantages of working in an office. Fine. So how would you design an office, and the culture, so that you have the benefit of face to face interactions when needed but not interruptions all day? Maybe equip everyone with private offices with doors that close, so that people can close them when they want to concentrate, and open them when they are available to chat?

The book does seem a little facile, but still worth reading, which is why I awarded it four stars.

Insightful

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 14 April 2019

Verified Purchase

Gives you a very good look at how working remotely has worked well for the authors’ company, 37signals. While the book highlights the advantages of working remotely for both employees and employers, I was a bit thrown off when they said that sometimes, to solve a particularly gnarly problem or to meet tight deadlines, they work together from one location. So, it seems like while remote work would work most of the time, sometimes you may need to work from one place together, when intense collaboration is required.

Book kept me engaging as I was retrospecting my experiences. It's a good narration with practical experience uncovered with guidelines or best practices. Worth the time for beginners willing to be enterpreneurs/software consultants. A decades experience can be digested in no time.

The pandemic ushered digital transformation makes this book more relevant than ever in 2021. Though some of the technologies here have been replaced by more advanced ones, the core and crux of remote still remains the same. Remote : Here to stay!

If you're interested in remote working you should not miss this one. After reading you will believe that remote working is not so difficult as it's made out to be. This book concentrates on all the relavant stuff including the main tools required for remote working, importance of communication and the importance of trusting the employee to get work done remotely. A short book, but with so much of value, packed in it.

I have been planning to convert my current local office to a distributed workspace. This book has been really helpful as it gave me a clear idea of the Do's and Dont's while I begin the process. If you do not want to learn few important things the hard way then please read this book.

Instant Messenger the elephant in the corner of the interruption factory

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 February 2017

Verified Purchase

A useful book, to the point that I will order a copy myself after reading a chunk of a borrowed one. However, my main gripe with the tools presented is the inclusion of messenger apps such as Jabber. These, from my own numerous experiences, are a major source of the "interruption factory" old-school culture that prevents people from working effectively and deeply in a modern office. They are equivalent to people walking up to your desk, shouting across the office or having a conversation next to you, and a primary source of interruption for anyone who thinks for a living. Messenger apps have their place, but they are just a text version of the telephone, and equally distracting. Great if you talk for a living, abysmal if you think for your salary. This major criticism aside (and it's a big one as I generally respect Fried's work), this is a useful book for those considering taking the leap or improving their current remote working.

A book for now!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 14 May 2020

Verified Purchase

Many of us have been forced into home working as a result of the covid 19 pandemic without much thought of planning. This book provides the roadmap to embrace the best parts of having to work from
Home so it can continue in the future. Some of the tools are a bit outdated now (no mention of zoom for example) but other that this book is entirely relevant for now.

Wasn't really what I was looking for.

The book does a good job at selling remote working to someone who isn't already.

I was looking for something with more focus on how to help / improve for existing remote teams and workers.

Collection of trivialities

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 June 2020

Verified Purchase

I don't normally write reviews, but this was really, really bad. There are no original ideas in the book. For example, one of chapters is about proving that "you can't work from the office when you have a plumber coming". They actually thought it would be important and interesting to learn that. Don't waste you time.

Easy, concise, engaging, informative, but only one perspective on the matter

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 21 November 2016

Verified Purchase

I think the best advice regarding remote work these days can come from someone who is already doing it. And the authors of this book certainly fit that description. This book is mainly intended for those considering remote work, or those in the early stages (like me) looking for a broader perspective. It's a very light read with short and concise chapters and simple language. It is clearly in favour of remote work so one would have to look at a different book or one's own experience for the downsides of remote work depending on how different one's situation is from that described in the book.
