Pros: I liked the hybrid work policy; we could work from home two days a week, which was great for my commute to the Singapore office. As a Software Engineer, the core hours weren't too strict, which helped with personal appointments. This kind of flexibility is crucial for current edtech roles.
Cons: There's not much remote options beyond the two hybrid days, and sometimes getting approval for extra WFH was a struggle. For e-learning platform development, project deadlines could be really tight, making actual flexible hours hard to achieve despite the policy.
Advice to Management: Maybe consider expanding the remote options or making the hybrid policy more consistently applied across teams. For an education technology company, showing more trust in employees to manage their time would go a long way.
