Jun 2, 2021 at 15:50 comment added Gabe Sechan Its not unethical, but it may not be smart. RIght now, nobody really knows how to train juniors remote. Many companies have stopped hiring juniors as a result. There's a lot of advantages, especially for a junior, to being on site and surrounded by potential help and mentors. Going fully remote may hinder your growth compared to those who don't.
Jun 2, 2021 at 13:43 comment added WernerCD Related: slashdot.org/story/21/06/01/2142220/… - you won't be the only one looking for remote when asked to go back into the office. The real question is... do you have any alternatives lined up already? General rule is deal with "bad workplace", look for a new job and put notice in when you have a new job lined up. Are you prepared to quit without a new job lined up?
Jun 2, 2021 at 12:38 comment added Gabriel @Trueman "they train and give a great environment for some loyalty." In my experience, loyalty is a concept you might have when you start your career, but quickly find it only goes one way. The correct quote should have been "they train and give a great environment for some deliverables." Nothing more.

Jun 2, 2021 at 9:06 comment added Bernhard Barker What you should probably be contemplating is not whether to ask whether you can work remotely, but rather how to ask them. You need to ask in a way that makes it clear it's important enough to you that you'll probably leave soon if you don't get it, but without actual threatening to leave or mentioning leaving at all.
Jun 2, 2021 at 7:12 comment added Someone A lot of people are quitting over remote working. It's only a matter of time before it actually becomes mainstream. If you can't wait and really want remote work, ask for it, and if refused, be part of those who apply pressure by leaving (it's not a bad thing).
Jun 2, 2021 at 3:37 comment added mcalex Does your company ever employ experienced devs? If so, they're happy to employ somebody trained by another company - the ethics are the same.
Jun 2, 2021 at 2:49 comment added Jeffrey Business is business. Ethical has nothing to do with it (well, unless your job is manufacturing Vx gas or facial recognition)

Jun 1, 2021 at 18:08 comment added Trueman @puck Since I physically can go there it's basically just something I want, a bit out of the blue for them after a year, maybe I'm overthinking it but it seems a bit like breaking a tacit promise: they train and give a great environment for some loyalty.

Jun 1, 2021 at 18:04 comment added puck There are people who leave their job after a year for various reasons. Why should it be unethical to ask if you can stay remote and why do you think this reason could be more unethical than any other reason? Can you make a simple question out of a threat and wait a while until you decide how to proceed further?
