Yeah, I think I agree with this. I've always worked at companies with increasing autonomy and responsibility. And before that, I was in a number of youth programs focused on accountability and responsibility.
And totally agree that not everyone can or should do remote. It makes a lot of people unhappy. And it doesn't work for a lot of employers b/c they can't find enough of the right people. Or they have some real job-related requirement that makes it difficult or impossible to do remote. Like, how do you have a remote welder or a hardware engineer or biologist or forensic tech person. They need access to physical stuff and/or a lab with expensive equipment.
So, it's not a panacea. But it works really great for some people if it's setup right. And it can be a competitive advantage.
- jmg1138 7y agoI worked as a remote welder. The company I worked for was 100% remote with no central shop or office. We had mobile welding trucks that were fully loaded with tools and welding generators. We would work with local metal shops to share their space if we needed something like that. We needed access to physical stuff like the metal thing we were welding on, but the employer/employee part was all remote.
