How to Negotiate Remote or Hybrid Work

TL;DR: Approach this the same way you'd approach any other negotiation — with a clear ask and a reason.

Come with a specific proposal

"I'd like to work remotely 3 days a week" is easier to evaluate and approve than a vague request for "more flexibility."

Address the employer's likely concerns proactively

If they're worried about collaboration or oversight, address it directly — propose specific in-office days for key meetings, or a trial period to build trust.
