I joined my company straight out of college and it was during covid peak, it was totally remote and guess what, last week my manager called me and told me that I've been promoted with a salary hike(within less than a year).

If you've discipline and commitment you can make anything work. :)

Agreed. I've line managed people who have grown immensely during covid. I think the key is understanding the new medium... A remote office where conversations are encouraged to happen in the open and not by DM, is a better environment for juniors to learn than an office where there's closed rooms and knowledge moves in a more hierarchical way.

Congrats, but do you ever wonder if it would've been faster/easier in person?
