Ask HN: Would an office with no mandatory work hours function?
2 by MarcellusDrum | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Long story short, I started out as a freelancer making small websites, and now I'm managing a small team of 4 other people (Designer, Social Media Manager/Marketer, Backend Developer, Front End Developer). The social media manager joined recently, and we all have been working from home till now. I'm in the process of opening an office, and I'm thinking of implementing the following rules: 1) No work hours. You can work whenever you want, for any period of time you want. 2) You can work from wherever you want. You can go full remote, come to the office daily, or anything in between. 3) You have to come to the office every Monday for an hour or 2 for a meeting. You choose to leave or stay after that. What's important is that you meet deadlines. Everyone has a specified set of tasks, so it would be very clear when someone is lagging behind. The previous employee inside me is very excited about this system, but the manager in me feels that this is a naive approach. I fear that trying it out might make us miss some deadlines or produce low quality products, which would be a hit to our reputation. Anyone has experience with working with such a system?
