Do you think that lockdown remote work involves more video calls than pre-lockdown remote work?
Another commenter mentioned they saw more meetings during lockdown as a way for their managers to feel more in control, though for “real” remote companies I don’t see this being the case.
- j4yav 6y agoYes, that's my personal experience. Companies with more experience doing remote do MUCH more async, and I think a lot of companies who are now pushed into remote are creating tons of meetings as a sort of crutch for not knowing what else to do.
- learc83 6y agoOh yeah. I’ve worked remotely for over a decade. I didn’t even have a webcam on my primary computer until the pandemic started. Now everyone wants to have a video call for things that used to be emails or slack conservations.
