On the morning of May 22nd, Beijing time, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, said on Thursday that he expected that 50% of the company's employees might work remotely in the next five to 10 years.

He said that Facebook will begin to allow some employees to work full-time remotely, and said that if these employees move before 20211,they must inform Facebook, and their salaries may be adjusted according to the new location after moving.

Zuckerberg announced that Facebook will "actively" recruit more telecommuting employees and "cautiously" create permanent telecommuting jobs for existing employees. He believes that this decision should help Facebook improve its employee retention rate and help the company recruit talents who will not consider moving to big cities. In addition, Facebook can also improve the diversity of employees and spread economic opportunities to more places.
