Having started working remotely just before the pandemic hit (good timing I suppose), I was curious how the daily schedule would be different. I am sure that being at a remote-experienced company is better than companies starting it for the first time in general! In general my meetings are shorter but they also help give me a little of the face to face time I need to ask the random question or get to know my colleagues better. I am seeing this same situation with my kid’s and his friends remote learning for school as well. We planned on our kid going to remote school this fall and it seems pretty well thought out, but some of our friends had the school switch to remote for the first few months at the last minute. It has been a disaster for the most part! So the lesson to me is to NOT treat remote exactly like in-person... there are advantages and disadvantages but if you try to copy in-person to remote it will not be successful.
