AT MOST, the pool is the same timezone part of the world. I saw too many problems when you are +8 or -4 hours of the rest of your team.

- bregma 6y agoI manager a medium-sized team that spanned from UTC+3 to UTC+8 with me in the middle at UTC-5. It was great. Of course, it depends on what you do and how you work. If you job is to sing choral music, then yeah, there's going to be trouble. We were software developers.
- ghaff 6y agoI'm sure it varies--and, at some level, you deal with what you have to deal with. But, in my experience, ongoing synchronous communications can still work pretty well over about a 6 hour delta (i.e. US ET to CET). We don't have a lot of people on the west coast and they just have to get on early calls some days. Asia is much harder to communicate with in real-time and people just need to get up early or stay up late now and then.
