We hire virtually everywhere, in every time zone, from Brazil through Ghana to New Zealand. Also Chicago. All-hands is hard to do on the regular with a globally distributed team, so we just do constant field trips with subsets of the team --- NOLA, Paris, Singapore, Boulder, Capetown, Tokyo --- so we can get everybody face-to-face with parts of the team.

I’ve also been an EU-based open-source maintainer since 2007 and maintaining the globally-distributed Homebrew package manager since 2009. These experiences have helped me learn some tips on how to be more effective working remotely that I’d like to share with you:

Bookmarked Stop Pretending Your Company is Remote by Luiz Felipe G. Pereira

The pandemic made evident how much work can, and should, be different. The forced change to accommodate remote workflows also brought to light what I like to call “virtual offices”. Unlike truly remote friendly workplaces optimized for asynchronous communication, these aim to merely transport the office into a virtual space keeping the same unnecessary constraints of synchronous work intact, only replacing shoulder taps with Zoom calls. I’d love if we collectively agreed to start using a more appropriate name for these. They are office-less companies but they are not remote-friendly.
