The Covid-19 pandemic gave work from home a whole new meaning. The latter has brought many changes for employers and employees. Through my dissertation, I focus on the pros and cons of working from home, and explore changes in the treatment of articles on working from home before the Covid-19 pandemic and now. There are noticeable differences in addressing doubts about the aforementioned work practice, the latter addressing employers in the first study before Covid-19 and workers in the second. The research has a common interest of workers to work from home, and distrust on the part of management or managers. Through the interviews, I learned that the interviewees felt that their companies were well prepared to work from home and that they provided them with all the necessary equipment. Most of them got office computers, while the rest used their personal computers for business purposes before, so they did not need a new computer. Almost everyone wants to continue working from home even after the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, but most interviewees would combine working from home with office work.
