Tough comparison since so few companies embrace remote work, but see Automattic.

For really big companies there's always only so many people in any given city that you can hire. What's interesting is that most office based teams are effectively distributed in the collaborative work that they do with offices in other cities, yet they don't embrace individual distributed workers.
- logicallee 12y agoBut my experience is that very many startups embrace remote work when they are small. (as in, thousands of them do.) They have to - they don't have a choice. It doesn't seem to scale that well. (As in, they try but fail to scale it.) This is just my experience or impression.
