In this episode, we unpack the realities of working from home versus working in the office. We share what’s lost when you’re remote, like casual hallway conversations and easy collaboration and how that affects connection and visibility at work.

We also explore the upsides of remote life: fewer distractions, no commute, and more control over your time. At the same time, we dive into challenges like blurred work-life boundaries, reduced visibility, and the need to make your work legible in distributed teams.

From managing context switching to using writing as a communication tool, we talk about how engineers can stay productive and connected wherever they work and why, in the end, hybrid might be the best of both worlds.
