My take is it was a good right out of school job. But it wasn't Google awesome. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8736450

Anyway, regular devs shipping regular product is, to me, a better first job than remote work for most people. The people for whom remote work right out of school is less likely to be detrimental are probably people who were banging out open source or side projects while in school...i.e. those with a strong established independent habit.

Ok I see. Tangentially, I remember when I graduated I would have hated work at home as the social side was important, and getting to hang out with other techies is a bonus. Now work from home would be good for the family life
