My team has been doing this almost all the time since we went remote in March. It works well for us.

It helps more junior team members as well, since they're able to watch how more senior people figure stuff out and ask questions whenever they like.

It also has the social element, which many people have mentioned they're lacking while working remotely.

As long as you're on a team with people who can communicate well enough and are happy to have their camera on, it's great.

I've only had issues when there's someone who is just lurking without a camera and they seem to refuse to turn their camera on for whatever reason. They're making people forget about them and they miss out.
