Is Musk right? Is work from home dead?

The world watched on as Tesla founder Elon Musk told his staff working from home is over – and if they didn’t want to return to the office, they could look elsewhere for a job. Atlassian’s Scott Farquhar came straight out and said any Tesla staffers looking for work would be welcome at Atlassian.

So is Musk right? Is working from home dead? Dr Libby Sander is Fellow of the Australian Institute of Management, the founder and director of the Future of Work Project. Libby says for so long big corporations were inflexible and saying remote working wasn't an option, but then quickly proved it can be thanks to the pandemic.

So now we’re no longer mandated to stay home to work and life is largely back to normal, what happens next? Is work from home really here to stay? And who does it truly benefit?
