I used to enjoy short periods of remote work but I have hated WFH since it started during the Covid period.
- I miss talking with colleagues on things related to tech, but not necessarily related to the current task.
- Video meetings are exhausting to be a part of for resolving simple things. It was way faster to just talk in person.
- Video meetings feel less collaborative in general for open ended discussions, I see far fewer participation from teammates if it is not their own task.
- New employees who onboarded during Covid feel isolated as they didn't get to build personal rapport with others in the same or different teams.
- Interaction with people from different teams has almost disappeared, not everytime you had a new idea, you were actively looking for it.
- As much as I enjoy cooking, I hate that it feels like a chore at this point to do day in, day out.
- I hate that personal time and work time boundaries have merged and it seems like I am working at all hours and relaxing at all hours at the same time.
