I've been working remotely since well before the pandemic and my current employer has international offices around the world. They have been setup for remote working for at least a decade, and it shows.<p>Many managers can't work well remotely, and so the team/projects suffer as a result, and they conclude that it doesn't work.<p>I will say that I don't really feel close to my team. Sure, we talk on Zoom every week (and sometimes daily), but it always feels like it's at distance (Aside from my manager, I've never met any of them in person). To me, this doesn't matter, because I have an active social life outside of work. To others, this might feel isolating if you need that social interaction.
