The problem is it’s not sustainable to build an org around grumbling. If problems are only getting discovered in serendipitous hallway encounters, then that means a lot of problems aren’t getting discovered at all.
Remote first may be painful in the short term. But in the long term it’s much healthier as it forces the org to rationalize structured lines of communication.
- roamerz 5y agoThat is just one form of communication that you cannot easily replicate in a remote work force and another is social interaction. I have found that it is the glue that holds organizations together and helps keep teams producing quality work. With remote first I can see teams becoming individuals and thought processes becoming siloed. Through the pandemic I’ve seen our department pre covid, then during the pandemic we went mostly remote first then now as we are all back in the office with remote allowed on a less frequent basis. Both moral and productivity have improved since our return. It fun to work again and that also means it will be more than “just a job” as remote work can become.
