Dev by profession and hobby. Not a ton of time for hobbies these days though! Mom of two young kids. Also really into dog training (agility, nose-work, advanced obedience, etc) & reading fiction. 😃
Hmm! The big one seems obvious but I'll just state the obvious anyway - Onboarding is challenging to get right: cultivating a positive team culture and making sure people feel welcome and included. For people more junior and for students doing internships, there's also the added complexity of remote mentoring. All obstacles that can be overcome but I can see them being stumbling blocks for companies adjusting to remote-first.
For some people, working from home isn't ideal, so hopefully there is a plan in place to fund co-working spaces (once they reopen) for those who would rather work somewhere other than their own home. I don't think it's fair to expect everyone to be capable of working from home productively. Lots of people live in small spaces with loud distractions beyond their control 😅
Oh one more: potential for way too many conference calls. Some are definitely needed for both building relationships and hashing work out, but I think it's really easy to suck up all of an employee's time with a million calls when everyone is remote. There needs to be good time blocking for deep work.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
