I've worked remotely for 8 years.

It's more different than people think.

IMO the entire way your team operates needs to be centered around them being remote. The worst is hybrid teams where they are half remote and half in office. I don't think they work well anyway you do it.

Also some people just aren't very suited for remote work, they need to be physically around their co-workers.

If you are curious about more details, the REMOTE book is a good primer on the different ways of working remotely compared to in an office. https://basecamp.com/books/remote
