      "While we have the technology to work remotely from anywhere, it still feels like for some groups it is frowned upon to work remotely on a regular basis. I wish it was fine to work wherever you need to work from whenever you wanted. I think we'll get there eventually. This definitely varies by org. I'm in Finance, but I know other people in Sales who work remotely 99% of the time between traveling to customers or working from home. "
