So does going into an office 5 days a week, or even 2-3, for jobs that don't need to be in office, but no one says that. Maybe we could all agree that this will take a decade or more to shake out, and not just take the (little c) conservative view that we need to immediately cease remote work because of small issues of coordination? Eventually, something in the middle will become the new normal, but for now let's not try to force one thing or the other.
- snovv_crash 5y agoYour job isn't just technical though, I'm guessing. There's also a component of teamwork, collaboration, coordination, handovers, coaching etc, all of which I've found are much easier to do in-person than over a video call. For me what works is 1-2 days per week in the office to get all the admin done, and the rest at home getting real work done.
