The pandemic has pushed the global economy into a recession as it starts shrinking and growth stops.  As per IMF, the global economy is expected to dwindle by over 3 percent in 2020 – the steepest decline since the Great Depression of the 1930s. Major countries like the US, Japan, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, and Spain are expected to contract this year by 5.9, 5.2, 6.5, 7, 7.2, 9.1, and 8 percent respectively.

IT companies are now on the edge to review their policies not only to carry forward their businesses but also to ensure that their employees, customers, dealers are not impacted by adopting remote working. 

While working remotely reduces the stress of commuting (74%), it provides the ability to work from wherever they want to live (77%) and allows them to care for children or family members (56%). Also, the remote work lifestyle is the onset of outsourcing.  To reduce the cost of hiring developers’ entrepreneurs prefer to take the remote work and outsourcing route.  Hiring outsourcing would be better than inhouse, to reduce the cost of operations.
