The main reason is that, as everyone knows, Tokyo’s packed commuter trains are exhausting—you feel drained even before you start work. For those who live farther away, it’s not just physically tiring but also mentally stressful. Remote work doesn’t necessarily mean working fewer hours; in fact, it might even mean working more. But being able to save two hours of commuting and prep time is definitely worth it. Honestly, if remote work is no longer an option in the future, I’d probably lose interest.
Another key reason is that working in an office makes it easy to get interrupted, which constantly disrupts my train of thought. Frequent interruptions aren’t great for the company either. While I do get a lot of messages throughout the day, I still find it much more efficient to work in a quiet home environment rather than dealing with people interrupting me or background noise. Especially with my own computer setup, it’s just way more comfortable.
I won’t deny that achieving my personal goals is challenging, but I believe in market value rather than relying on the judgment of a single company or a small group of people.
