The pandemic has truly accelerated the timeline of companies’ work from anywhere policies. The choice of workstation within the workplace structure is now in the hands of the employee and research shows they favor flexibility. Companies like Spotify, Netflix, Schneider Electric, Amazon, Google and SalesForce have already announced their departure from the corporate cubicle life and many smaller companies are following suit.

You may find yourself looking for a remote work destination for yourself or your team shortly if you have not already begun the hunt. If you do a quick google search one of two things will happen…

  1. You will be overwhelmed by the choices in your area or
  2. You won’t be able to find a suitable space near you.

Since this has been our wheelhouse for over a decade, we wanted to help. We put together GCUC Places, an international network of spaces to help you and your teams find not only a home space but access to a global community of others.

When you join a space in the GCUC Places network you unlock an entire global network of vetted spaces that you and your teams now get to utilize at a 20% discount.

  • This allows you to keep your overhead cost low and rely on the network for “satellite offices” when your employs travel (or take advantage of the WFA policy)
  • It enables them to find connection and collaboration outside of your HQ and their home office.
  • It gives them a place for camaraderie. 89% of coworking members report being happier.
  • It gets the access to events and upskilling you don’t have to provide.

In case that wasn’t enough to get you thinking about joining a space that can support you and your team… check this out.
