Stripe is doing what many other older companies already do: have a core of on-site office workers but also open a satellite office that has remote workers.
Google and Microsoft also have pockets of remote workers.
Again, I don't think Stripe's 5th hub being "remote" is going to radically convince a lot of business managers. But that blog announcement is recently dated May 2 2019 so it's too early to predict its potential influence.
Do you think it will really turn the heads of business leaders?
