Mid pandemic one of my clients decided to bring in a manager to handle this. He tried everything that's been suggested here and more and the result was that 3 months later half their team left the company. My point is, some people don't want cultural cohesion and don't want to be "friends" with their coworkers and if you push it too hard on them they'll just leave. So learn to take no for an answer. Hope this helps.
- Ancapistani 4y agoI’m one of those people, most of the time - but I’m also pretty engaged in trying to preserve my company’s culture as it grows. I think the key is to make these things available, but not to “push it”. I’m one of those weird people that wants to keep their camera off 99% of the time and am much more comfortable over Slack than Zoom, but I still look forward to getting together with people for a couple of days every few months. Like everything, there’s a balance to be struck here.
- donnythecroc 4y agoAgree. People choosing to work at a remote first company likely abhor "The Office" style "culture" that you describe. It's the specific reason we hate everything you describe and you will just come off as a Michael Scott character to employees.
