I suppose for the premium amount you are being paid, as compared to the Indian worker, being physically present is a requisite. I cannot say, I disagree with the logic myself.
- cosgroveb 15y agoPaying a premium so we can play butts-in-seats and management can feel like they're tending properly to the cube farm...
- random42 15y agoI cant say anything for your management, but my management (actually my immediate boss), is very reasonable. Being a developer himself, he understands what programmers need to be productive. He allows remote work, time to time. In time is as late as 11:30 AM (which is also just because, we have standup that time). In all, a very reasonable person to work for/with/under, who believes in not micro-managing people. However, co-locating has its own benefits, and I suppose thats why he does not hire remote workers (for permanent positions). We have hired remote contractors in the past, and they worked fine to good, but it required lot of effort on collaborating.
