Shoot.. happy to help. I’ve been working remote for 12 years

I see your position. If you’re an employee who is always over achieving and performing, you should be fine. Not sure what’s your role with respect to seniority, but daily calls and showing activity are ways to keep in gauged. When I first started to work from home, I remember always feeling worried. You will be kept in the shadows and you’ll be the last one yo find out about things that occurred or changes. If within your department there are others who also work remote, then you should be fine.

Question for all of the above. How do you feel it's impacted your networking? A big part of promos, especially in my industry is senior leader buy in. Not just from your own org, but other orgs to vouch for you too. I love wfh, but struggle to balance it with the old coffee walks

I’ve worked fully remote for startups for the past 3 years and have been remote based for more than 10 years in total. In terms of growth and career opportunities, look for a remote first company. I struggled with the perception that remote employees don’t work as hard in the bad old days at a company where most employees were 100% on-site.
