Purpose: In response to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, many employers have decided to switch to remote work. This form of work has become a new professional reality for employees representing all generations. Each of them in their own way found themselves in these new working conditions. The article focuses on the experience of the youngest cohort of workers in this regard. The main goal of the paper is to recognize the experience of Generation Z employees in the area of remote work and to identify key factors that, in the opinion of representatives of Generation Z, favor or limit remote work in an uncertain time of Covid-19. Design/methodology/approach: The authors conducted a diagnostic survey with a survey questionnaire. The questionnaire was carried out using the CAWI method. It was filled in by 334 respondents who represent Generation Z, professionally active, who worked remotely during the pandemic. As many as 310 questionnaires were selected for the final analysis. Findings: Young people like the model of remote work because they can derive many benefits from it. Representatives of Generation Z wonder whether the return to office work will deprive them of their privileges and make them submit to a certain discipline and rules applicable there. Research limitations/implications: Due to the limitations of the research sample it is important to underline that generalizing the research results must be done with caution. The authors of the article intend to continue the research carried out on the discussed topic, as well as in the field of adaptability to remote work of other three generations: Y, X, and BB. Practical implications: Recognition of experience of both employers and young employees in the field of remote work, there is a great opportunity for new solutions in HRM and work management, more relevant to the challenges of the pandemic and post-pandemic world of work. Originality/value: The paper analyzes the remote work experience of employees in pandemic reality. Its value is to look at the issue from the perspective of the experience of the youngest employees representing Generation Z. The article is addressed to human resources managers.
