Hi all, i'm a new user here. Been troubled about this issue working from home & outside, currently, i'm serving full time job outside but also i'm constantly looking out for good jobs also. So i came across a job which we are able to work from home, the hours are very flexible, they are not looking at your hours work but the work you put in. the company is very stable and profitable also, been around since 2005. But there's some con and pros on these two jobs i'm on and thinking of. I'll list out and hopefully will get some insights on this.
Working outside :
Pros -
1) The normal benefits ( Annual Leave, sick leave, hospitalized leave, annual bonus, performance bonus, incentives )
2) 5 days work week ( weekend not included )
3) Decent Pay
4) By goverment rules, all employees/employers need to contribute a fixed amount of contribution ( $$$ ) to a scheme. Company is paying for your contributions also for that scheme ( you can use this scheme to purchase a house and even personal medical bills )
- Link is Broken - For reference.
Cons -
1) Have to travel ( by bus/car so on )
2) Being supervised ( every now and thn people are looking at you )
3) Waking up in the early morning and take your attendance using the company attendance system ( Clocking in/out )
Working at home :
Pros -
1) You're on your own, no1 will supervise you ( Lots of freedom )
2) You don't have to wake up very early in the morning
3) Free wifi from your house ( Saving all those 3G/4G datas )
4) Travelling is needless ( Straight on the computer )
5) Lots of free time with your family/childrens ( If married/just gave birth )
6) Decent Pay also
7) Less Stress
8) Flexiblitity
Cons -
1) No Benefits ( Just annual leave - 14 days as well, no sick leave, bonus, hospitalized leave ) - when you feel sick, you just need inform them to get day off, and they will let you.
2) You've to pay for your own contributions ( Company not paying for you ) So if you plan to purchase a flat, you need fork out more. Since employer is not paying in the scheme mentioned.
3) Distraction
4) Work might not end ( You might need work in weekends to finish up your projects so on )
5) Promotion might be overlooked
There might be more advantages and disvantages over up there that i might missed out and thought of. But so far those is what i've concluded and been comparing both. It's a very tough decision. As the pay, i'm considered quite a low-paid employee. So i've been thinking about it.
Would like to know more feedbacks/insights from working professionals or those who been working from home for past years or many years. Could say that the working from home is quite a stable job as well if you keep up at it. Since the company is stable and profitable.
Best Regards.
