Unpopular opinion: for innovation and creation which requires collaborative team work - especially in early stages of a project/product - nothing better than being together collocated, but once you’re in execution mode (requirements finalized, now build) much better to be at home. I can’t stand having to transport to the office, but once I’m there there is nothing better
Couldn’t agree more. There really is something unique about being in a room with a big white board, a few tough problems to solve, and lunch on the table. I’ve done my best work in those situations and I’m looking forward to when my job looks like that again.
