I'm leaving GitLab to help everyone work remotely

Yeah. I don’t like working at home because I want the separation, and I don’t have enough room to dedicated space to work.

I also find face to face meetings far more productive, and I struggle to hear people on calls (my hearing isn’t great).

I suspect it gets a lot better when the company has no one at all in the same place, but as soon as some people can have a quick chat in the office I think a two tier system will develop and that will cause issues.

This is my feeling as well.

I also enjoy my commute (which is rather short: ~25 min door to door) as a way to get into the mood for work or leave it behind on my way home.

Then again I am one of the people that enjoy open office plans. There may be some correlation with this.
