"Working from home is on the rise, and more companies are trusting their employees to be more productive in their own home offices than they might be at the workplace.\nDigging deeper, Wrike, a company that makes collaboration software (so it has a stake in this game), conducted a survey with 1,074 respondents, asking them a variety of questions about working from home. \nThe results showed that telecommuting is far more prevalent than we thought. In fact, 83% of the respondents said they work remotely at least part of the day.\nSome of us here at Mashable have considerable experience with working at home \u2014 many of us work at home at least 20% of the time, and some of our far-flung global staff telecommute 100% of the time. For instance, I've been working from my home office for various online sites for the past 12 years, with no ill effects thus far.  \nWorking from home is not for everyone, but for many of us, it turns out to be more productive \u2014 especially when doing highly concentrated activities such as writing, editing and researching \u2014 than it is in a room full of beloved colleagues. But it's not all sweetness and light. See the infographic below for accurate examples of the drawbacks. \nBeyond those details, find out even more fun facts about the telecommuting revolution in this cute chart, and then let us know in the comments what you think about working from home. Do you believe telecommuting will become more prevalent in the coming years?\n\n\n\n\nInfographic courtesy Wrike.com/Tony Keller"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
