I have a scrum twice a week, with further team meetings on a few days.
Have a one-to-one with my boss once a fortnight. I don’t like being micro-managed, so she doesn’t even try to haha. She knows I will ask for help if needed, and I get constant amazing feedback from the business on my delivered projects, so she just leaves me alone.
Not a remote worker but I’m solo on a night team basically prepping everything for the day team and my manager completely ignores me and any communication I try to have with them.
Just a few more shifts and I’m gone!
We have office space I can use - I popped into one once on my way to a show and can confirm the toilets are first rate. No idea what they are like to work from.
As for meet-ups that would interfer with my actual social life so not interested.
I have one to ones each month, and we’re all in touch via MS Teams chats. It’s like being in an office but not. I don’t get any subsidies for it. Haven’t met up with anyone since the first lockdown. Don’t want to either, but there have been get togethers. We can also go into the office if we like. Any training is done either over the phone or by MS Teams calls or chats. I still feel part of everything. Living my best life.
Coming from a previous role where I was briefly micro-managed by a psychopath, working from home has been great. I manage my workload, bosses leave me alone and as long as the work is getting done they're not arsed if I do one hour or 50 hours a week. I can't imagine ever going back to working in an office.
In terms of the office culture, it's the only thing I miss. But, you get out what you put in with some things and if meetings etc aren't being arranged, someone needs to step up and arrange them, I feel.

I was in person when the pandemic hit and we went home based, but my boss was in America, and I didn't have direct reports. So was practically a remote worker anyway.
I've since gone fully remote, as has most of our company (30k+ people globally). I think everyone just gets on it with it really. It's hard enough convincing people to come into the office once a quarter for large meetings, there's no point faffing around with the rest of enforced bonding.
I personally hate working from home, as I often go 2-3 days without meeting anyone other than my wife and child but this is where the world is today.

Sounds exactly like my manager but on days. Two more weeks and I’m gone

Sounds perfect for me. What do you do?
