While that is not entirely bad, making informed decisions about your career is important.
Lets look at them below.
Steady Income
One of the attractive benefits of working full-time on-site is having a consistent source of income.
This also helps you consolidate your career and other aspects of your life.
Planning and budgeting become much easier when you know you have a steady income.
Access to Loans
Working full-time on-site increases your credibility and allows you to take advantage of modern financial services.
This assures them that you are less likely to default, unlike freelancers with an irregular income pattern.
This limits your risks of isolation and other mental health issues.
And that is what you get to enjoy in full-time on-site employment.
you’re able to enjoy the office gym, cafeteria, relaxation room, etc.
Plus, they can be renovated as the company progresses.
However, working remotely is a different ballgame, as you are obligated to set up your home office.
You may also find it difficult to unwind as often as possible in full-time on-site employment.
You get to do the same thing daily (within the same environment) per your job responsibilities.
This makes your career redundant and gives you little or no time to diversify or advance.
Plus, you may limit your career opportunities to your locale as a full-time on-site worker.
Increased Work-Related Stress
More work hours equals more responsibilities, higher expectations, and increased stress levels.
This affects your sleeping/eating patterns and increases anxiety, to mention a few.
Shallow Resume
A shallow resume is often one of the effects of a redundant career.
This also affects your earning potential.
Lack of Work Autonomy
Full-time on-site employment deprives you of the luxury of work autonomy.
You have to conform to set structures, hierarchies, and duties, whether they are favorable or not.
This can limit your creativity and make it difficult to showcase your innate talents.
You must always show up when called upon and do as instructed, except when indisposed.
