imo, remote setups work best if/when your foundations (vision, objectives, execution skills, etc.) are strong, which is often not the case for startups fwiw, my own company is remote; and while there are benefits (cost savings, higher quality of life), i do think we'd be more effective business wise in-person

I’ve heard of companies that have found a good middle ground where they balance running a remote team with mandatory retreats once or twice a year. Personal connections are fostered while allowing for employees to work around their schedules.

While there’s no “on size fits all” approach, I do think there’s a lack of communication and curiosity in seeking out better ways to make remote work, work. Instead you have people forcing others to go back to a way that doesn’t fit within the direction the world is going.

It's amazing to me that the companies boasting "world-class" teams require every day onsite. Like...no. Unless they're covering relocation costs and childcare.

properly having a remote first startup requires some changes in how a company does things that some aren't willing to do which like fine but it's a huge leap to 'remote is inherently bad / inferior'
