Pros: As a Network Engineer in the telecommunications industry, I did get some flexibility for appointments. There's a decent WFH policy for specific days, which helps with the commute on the Isle of Man. It's not a 'remote-first' company, but they're trying.
Cons: True work-from-home is pretty limited for most IT services roles. There's often pressure to be in the Douglas office, even when tasks could easily be done remotely. It's tough if you need full flexibility, especially for support positions.
Advice to Management: Consider allowing more work-from-home days for technical and IT services staff. Trust your teams more with remote work capabilities; it would really boost morale and productivity across the Isle of Man operation.
