In a mixed on-site/remote culture, I don't think you do get fair knowledge sharing. In that culture, the on-site workers will always have an edge. And they will be more likely the ones to get promoted.

For anyone looking for remote work, I suggest finding a "remote first" or "100% distributed" company.

In a 100% distributed environment, how do you get the same knowledge sharing and culture? Or is it largely not an issue, because everybody communicates the same way (text chat, video chat, voice chat, screen sharing, email)?

Is company culture and the connection that people have as strong? What about the random after-work-pub-chats where people say whats on their minds or otherwise talk about things that they might not during the normal course of the day?

Maybe its not an issue when everyone is in the same boat.
