Yikes. As someone who's worked remotely for over a decade, I can't imagine starting a company with people I've never had a beer with.
- alexlchen2019 6y agoHey y'all, member of the engineering team here: I actually have become extremely close friends with a lot of our team members here at Gather, even though we haven't met in person — something about dropping by my coworkers' desks really makes it feel like we're together. But yeah, you really do miss out on grabbing a beer, or, for instance, knowing how tall your teammates are haha
