I've been WFH for about 6 years.

I enjoy the trust I am given to get work done that I promise to get done. I'm in a different TZ, so I enjoy the quiet time I get when the others on the team aren't working. However, as hard as we try, I still miss conversations that happen away from a computer or phone. Also, I do sometimes miss working in person with the people I work with. Finally, I do miss having a proper lab. I look around at the RF equipment laying around my home office and get a bit depressed.

Remote work works. Anyone who says it doesn't has an agenda. Like non-remote work, you just have to hire the right people.
