Abstract

For the foreseeable future, managing the work from home (WFH) workplace will continue to be a challenge for enterprises. An essential stage in developing and improving a plan is utilizing topic modeling and polarity sentiment analysis. This strategy can assist executives in sustaining productivity, customizing employee settings and experiences, and sustaining successful teamwork. The objective of this research is to utilize Reddit’s subreddits and behavioral analytics to detect work-from-home trends in the context of COVID-19, employing advanced computational methods. On textual data collected from 7 communities focusing on WFH-related discussion on Reddit from December 1, 2020, to August 31, 2022, we use sentiment analysis and latent topic modeling. Polarity analysis revealed that communities had a more favorable attitude towards WFH than a negative one. Community members were found to be worried about a range of issues associated to remote employment, according to topic modeling.
