Remote Hiring | Autodesk State of Design & Make Report

Survey data shows a mixed picture regarding remote work

Sixty-two percent of respondents say their companies are mandating a return to the workplace, signaling that employers are not yielding to workers’ preferences in the race for talent.

However, 59% say their companies are seeking remote talent from low cost-of-living areas, a seeming contradiction. Most likely, this suggests that companies are hiring remotely to save on costs while also mandating return for employees who live close to a workplace.
