metadata.value: The paper analyzes work practices and attitudes of employees of Russian IT-sector companies
  towards working in remote and hybrid formats (combining working from home and from the
  office). We focus on two main sets of issues. First, we consider workloads and socio-psychological
  well-being of employees under remote and hybrid employment conditions. Second, we
  focus on individual and group efficiency of hybrid and remote work formats. The main contribution
  of this paper to the existing literature is in its focus on organizational and managerial
  factors which shape employee attitudes to remote working. Drawing on a survey study of
  400 employees in Russian IT-sector in March 2021, we find that hybrid format significantly increases
  the workload of employees compared to remote working. Nevertheless, paradoxically, the hybrid format is preferred by the majority of respondents. We conclude that the attitudes
  to remote work are shaped mainly by the character of work tasks and the employee’s position
  in the network of organizational communications. We find evidence that respondents without
  subordinates, who are responsible for their individual work tasks, tend to react positively to
  remote work, emphasizing the “convenience” of working from home, whereas managers and
  employees who are actively involved in communication processes and organization of other
  people’s work, are much more critical to remote working. Our findings also suggest that the
  quality of organizational communications plays a key role in determining both employees’
  social well-being and performance assessment. In remote working, information overloads become
  a serious problem for workers, while the lack of information, by contrast, is not considered
  to be a serious problem.
