Yes, similar situation at the startup I work for (which has also more than doubled in headcount since Covid started). The distributedness genie can’t be put back in the bottle now, which has significant pros and cons. It does make a lot of things less efficient, but on the other hand, it also lets us hire good people who don’t necessarily want to relocate to NYC.
- cebert 5y ago> It does make a lot of things less efficient Do you believe remote work is less efficient because your organization hasn’t adapted to remote work, or do you believe something about remote work somehow makes it inherently less efficient?
- School-Cotton 5y agoThe latter, with the caveat that it makes some things less efficient, not all. As an example, having face-to-face conversations can allow you to hash things out much more quickly and easily than over Slack or Zoom.
