I am suprised that at 3000 people the company doesn't have offices all over.

I worked mostly remotely for one Bank - mostly because I arranged to have 2 desks and then slowly moved home and worked from the different offices. I love face to face sometimes and remote (full concentration) other times.

Again I find that a lot of people can't handle it. Like a basic rule should be that you should respond within 1-30 min to any chat message.

We have 1 primary office and then a couple of smaller offices in different states.

I generally live by your basic rule. I actually respond better than the majority of the people in the office.

There are two types of people i have noticed that are challenged the most with working remote. Those that need lots of social interaction and those with smaller kids at home. One simply hates the isolation and the other is usually too distracted.
