UK Jobs market and teleworking
-
Where I'm currently working, I have no reasonable career path. Moving up isn't an option, as there's (practically speaking) nowhere to go without becoming a manager. However, I'm quite well paid as developers go generally speaking, particularly given my location :-D . I'm not averse to moving, but I live in a 4 bedroomed detached house (with office at home, broadband etc) facilities, and if I move, it's going to cost to achieve the same environment. Ideally I'd like to be able to work from home most days, which, via VPN, isn't a problem at the moment (although when I'm doing a lot of work involving our test servers, I do go into the office). Are there many companies in the UK that are properly geared up for this, and actually trust their employees to work rather than watch daytime TV? Steve S
