Absolutely.
An awkward forced conversation once a week, erp.
- 000ooo000 2y agoMine's (IC currently) fortnightly, and it always feels extremely structured/forced. We're fully remote too, which IMO makes it even more critical for these things to hit their mark because you can't smooth things over with the typical office contact/banter.
- cdchn 2y agoIf they feel extremely structured, what is the structure that is in place for your 1:1s? I do my 1:1s fortnightly and don't have a rigid structure to them but try to make sure to remember at least once a quarter touch on career dev and learning opportunities. And at least a little bit of normal bullshitting you don't get when everyone is remote. Occasionally, but rarely they end up going "How you doing?" "Good." "Need anything?" "Nope." but I still like them because they represent I'm always setting aside time to talk, its a priority, and the lines are open. And I'm typically very close to the "this meeting could have been an email" end of the spectrum.
