Makes sense to me, in my company we allow for senior developers to be remote but not for junior ones, since they need more hand-holding, so there's a correlation between experience and being remote.
- Insanity 7y agoSame at my company. We actively looked for senior developers for this reason.
- iso1631 7y agoWho handholds the junior developers?
- lazyant 7y agoNot all the seniors are remote.
- iso1631 7y agoSo that splits the responsibilities of seniors I was helping a junior (well more-junior) earlier with a problem. Had a quick look, then did a video call, drew a diagram on my whiteboard, job done, 5 minutes. Wouldn't have been possible in the office.
- globular-toast 7y agoWho holds their hands if the seniors are remote?
- kradroy 7y agoYou can certainly hold hands over Skype/zoom/Slack. I don't think there's a physical proximity requirement for hand-holding.
- globular-toast 7y agoThen why can't the juniors be remote?
