I live in Australia, I work for a company headquartered in the US. For 10-15 years I've reported to a US-based manager (not just at my current job, also at my old one); actually only in the last couple of years I've been reporting to someone in Europe instead. And all three of Australia, the US and Europe have DST – but starting/ending at different dates, plus Australia being in the Southern Hemisphere, it's in the opposite half of the year. So it complicates remembering the time zone differences, because they vary across the year, and mean we have to change meeting schedules (a meeting time someone can manageably make one month becomes too early/late a few months later because DST has changed the offsets.) So I think if everybody got rid of DST, it would make that aspect of my life easier, and lots of other people's too.
