Fish Fam who switched jobs during pandemic, How do you build rapport with your team in remote work arrangements?
everyone is already sick of meetings, adding another set of meetings doesn't seem like a great idea.

Leverage chat (Teams, Slack, etc) to ping people to intro yourself briefly and learn what projects they’re on, etc. These short convos can help accelerate you getting to know your coworkers and is a more relaxed and less formal way than through email or setting up a formal meeting.

smart

I switched jobs, I’d recommend setting up like 20 mins on like a Friday where you know most work related meetings probably aren’t scheduled for a quick intro

Sounds like a good way to frustrate people. Additional zoom/calls just prior to the weekend.

It depends on the culture at your new place. I transitioned into industry and found people like non-content, coffee chat Zooms at my new company

The PE culture is sick. The 20 something VP was rude to our partner because our team took thanksgiving and the day before off and it was in the engagement letter that we were gonna be off. He kept emphasizing that his team did our job while we were on a break. Dude we are not sick like you and we have lives. I see something about how s**t the PE culture is in every deal we support.

Like these sickos make fun of us for working 80+ hours weeks for them and taking thanksgiving off.
