My mate works for an Indian company and got WFH forever. I was in shock because I never thought any company can give a work from home option forever ? Does any Australian company gives you such an option ? If so, please name those companies and job titles so that I can start applying for jobs there.

The trick is stop being an employee and start being an independent contractor. You decide how, when, and where to work.

Just be aware of all the other shit you now have to deal with like tax, insurance, super, etc.

Lol thats not true. Contractors get treated worst than employees so no WFH for them.

If you are a proper contractor not an employee paid as a contractor than you set your work terms because it becomes a B2B relationship not a e2e.
