Over the
last
 two or three decades, the way that business is done has changed dramatically due to major advances in technology.
As a result
, a growing number of
people
 are now choosing to
work
 from the comfort of their own homes. In
this
 essay, I will explore the pros and cons of working and try to draw some conclusions. I will start by looking at the advantages. One of the major pluses of working remotely is the fact that you do not have to commute to a job.Millions of communities worldwide have to deal with rush-hour traffic to make their way to the office.Obviously,
this
 is not necessary if you turn your
home
 into your place of job.
Secondly
, working at
home
 gives you much more freedom to manage your working day.
For example
, if you
work
 in an office,you are often asked to attend meetings, and your timetable is decided for you.
This
 is not the case when your job is in an office at
home
.
On the other hand
, It can be very easy to get distracted if you are in your
home
 environment.
For instance
, it is extremely tempting to turn on the television, go relax in the garden or make a personal phone call. Clearly,these distractions will dramatically reduce your productivity. Another major disadvantage of working from
home
 is that
people
 have much less contact with their colleagues.
This
 can make them feel cut off, despite the extra freedom they have working from
home
.What's more, daily contact with
people
 at
work
 is often how good friendships are made. To conclude, there are both positives and negatives to
this
 way of working. In spite of the fact that it removes travel issues and gives us greater freedom, many
people
 find it difficult because of distractions at
home
 and feeling isolated. Personally,I believe it is important to keep
work
 and
home
 life separate to find the right
work
-life balance.
