What can companies do better to foster good remote culture?

My opinion is if you have a company and want to support remote workers you have to go above and beyond with communication to help inform them of what is going on since there are bound to be pieces of information remote workers will miss if not in the office.

I think remote workers also should take some of that responsibility and perhaps be extra "chatty" with messages to their teammates just to let people know that they are around.

Investment in audio/video equipment if you are having regular online meetings is a must. Having excellent audio/video quality will definitely help.
