In-person. Remote. Hybrid.
The return to the office in the years following the pandemic has highlighted for many of us the pros and cons of different working arrangements.
Some of us adjusted well to the “new normal” of remote work and resisted returning to the morning traffic. Others missed the office community and collaboration — and not having to deal with extra tech for a simple conversation!
If you’ve had conversations with professionals in the middle of the office return, you’ve probably heard opinions like this:
“There are too many distractions in the office.” or “There are too many distractions in my home.”
“I can’t brainstorm without easy access to my coworkers.” or “I can’t brainstorm with the hustle and bustle in the office.”
“With my commute, I don’t have a work-life balance.” or “When I don’t leave the house for work, I can’t separate work and life.”
Though it existed for years before the pandemic, coworking came to light out of the many opinions on the best way to work.
We might be a little bit biased, but coworking presents a way to combine the positives of in-office work with the flexibility of remote work.
We know this style of work isn’t for everyone, but it might be for you! Here’s why:
1. Coworking allows you to create a balanced workday.
At Cornerstone Coworking, we offer a flexible workspace.
Maybe you prefer to tackle the biggest tasks on your to-do lists by yourself in the morning then handle the lighter responsibilities later in the day while you share a cup of coffee with another coworker. You can reserve a private office for solo work and share a common space with other professionals later.
Do you have meetings planned for part of the day? You can rent a meeting room for an afternoon chat and finish your day in the common area by the windows to enjoy some beautiful Georgia sunshine.
You can tailor our coworking space to meet your ever-changing work needs and boost your productivity.
2. Coworking establishes community (and we all need it!)
As Lawrenceville grows and thrives, local professionals are at the heart of change.
When you cowork with us, you’re not just meeting professionals in your field or your company. You’ll also meet nonprofit founders, tech teams, marketing gurus and more within our walls — all with the shared goal of learning, connecting and building a better Gwinnett County!
Starting a business, tackling a big project or pushing through your task list can be exciting and freeing on some days and exhausting and discouraging on others. You’ll likely hit a roadblock in your project or your new business, and you’ll experience big wins and promotions.
With a coworking community, you’ll be surrounded by people to encourage and advise you throughout your business journey — and who want to hear what you’ve learned in your professional journey too.
No matter your professional expertise — from freelance writers to accountants to pastors and more — at Cornerstone Coworking, you’ll find a community of professionals who want to see each other, and Lawrenceville as a whole, succeed.
Schedule a visit or drop in between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on a weekday to see if our coworking space is a good fit for your professional needs!
