![]() ![]() This makes it faster and easier to onboard new staff, as it’s guaranteed to be a documented process that gets updated and can be referenced at any time. When everything that is said in a company is documented, no one ever falls behind and knowledge can always quickly be accessed at any time.Īlso, when you need to onboard new employees, most office-only companies don’t have onboarding documented - in a remote company, it has to be, there’s no other way to onboard people. We’ve limited our video meetings as much as possible so that all of our most important conversations and knowledge can be captured in Slack and stored for future use. ![]() Once you get a taste of freedom and flexibility, you’d be amazed at how grateful and more willing people are to work for you.įinally, the power of documentation is one that you can only learn when you work 100% remotely as a company. Many of our developers travel the world while working (and still stay more productive than any other developers I’ve known!), and many also have children they get to spend more time with thanks to working remotely. A lot of this is tied to how we constantly help them grow, but a big part of it is also simply because of the freedom that comes with remote working. The satisfaction level of our developers is incredible - more than 96% on our bi-weekly surveys. It’s incredibly powerful when people have very limited distractions and only one goal: moving things forward. There are challenges that come with staying productive when working remotely, but they’re much easier to solve than the infinite distractions that come with an office. You don’t realize how little work happens in an office environment compared to when that same staff then goes home at night and has privacy to get actual work done. We’re infinitely more productive when we don’t arrange meetings for the sake of meetings, and every conversation we have is focused on moving things forward. ![]() Productivity, happiness from true work/life balance, and the power of documentation. ![]()
