“Third workplaces” are growing in popularity.

“Third workplaces” are growing in popularity. Working from home isn’t the only alternative work environment growing in popularity among young people. Now “third workplaces” are popping up everywhere from hotels to restaurants—there’s even rentable spaces through WeWork that let workers clock in on their own time. Some restaurants are incorporating office-like features to create a welcoming work environment—one worker notes that for just $25/day they were able to grab a table in a covered outdoor dining area with high-speed WiFi and outlets (plus free coffee). Remote work is becoming more normal by the minute and some employees are even quitting their jobs to find positions that allow them to work remotely 100% of the time—from whatever location they desire. While many are now preferring to work from home almost indefinitely—YPulse’s employment and career goals research found that more than half of Millennials plan to work from home post-COVID— “third workplaces” are providing the flexibility of WFH without the stuck-at-home feeling.
