IIT Kanpur graduate reveals the real problem with WFH after her friend quit a fully remote job. 'I did not leave my office job to work the same hours...'

IIT Kanpur graduate Kanak Agrawal has highlighted the real problem with work from home after her friend quit a fully remote job requiring 10 am to 6 pm availability. Agrawal argues that workplace flexibility is about time autonomy, not just location. She says companies often prioritise employee presence over outcomes, pushing workers who value independence to change jobs, freelance or build independent income streams.
