I agree the issues can be addressed, I disagree with your assertion they are easy to fix, not to mention the cost to address some of them is not free. And yea

I agree the issues can be addressed, I disagree with your assertion they are easy to fix, not to mention the cost to address some of them is not free. And yea, I totally agree there are some people that just won't due well in a remote environment while many people can thrive given the right circumstances.
It is interesting to me why more startups aren't remote friendly early on today as if you build that culture early it actually has a key benefit of forcing good process and communication skills on the entire company, versus relying on the office chatter which is common in startups. This is my primary reason for preferring remote from the start of any company I am apart of, it just forces good habits and lets you find awesome people anywhere.
- bsvalley 8y agoI agree. I can only think of Automattic (wordpress), Github and InVision in terms of mid-size fully remote companies. They are more early stage startups that do that... It really sucks because the companies I mentioned are pretty successful and they have a very solid and strong culture.
