When I first joined my company it was a fairly standard office based role in a small team of about 6. A couple of colleagues had agreements in place to work from home three days a week because the company had been taken over and relocated.
Since then, people have left and new people joined and secured similar wfh arrangements after having children etc. It all works reasonably well, EXCEPT I find myself frequently the only member of my team in the office. My boss, who also wfh from his holiday home abroad around six months of the year, is also very slow to respond to emails, instant messenger, etc so I seem to be constantly chasing people, whereas if we were all in the same office, we would simply talk to each other.
Is anyone else in a similar situation? I’m planning to put in a wfh request too but I think it will be rejected as I don’t think I have a strong enough case. Any thoughts from HR people?
