For an individual, who mostly cares about focus time to complete their tasks, remote works great.
I’m conflicted because I love remote for focus time but my job demands convening large groups and getting consensus and decisions, and that is way easier in person.
Any tasks which require multiple people working together, decision making, reading body language, having small conversations that you might not schedule a call for (which I think all fall into management tasks more than IC) are better in person
- jobigoud 5y agoThe same person might have different body language during an in-person meeting in an uncomfortable office vs their home so if you use that for decision it's already biased. Some people are also more comfortable with casual text chat than casual in-person discussion and if relying on the latter you may miss things.
- seba_dos1 5y agoWhat's more - it's pretty hilarious (or sad, depending on circumstances) when neurotypical people are trying to judge the body language of people on the spectrum. They usually fail pretty hard and don't realize it.
