If certain members become known as being super important or valuable, management's response will more often be "fix this risk" not "great, let's reward that person". In the short term it will bring that person some degree of job security, but in the long term they are viewed as a threat to the org. It's the assembly line mindset -- if there's only one person who can operate the machine or build a part, remove the part. |

Though there is a difference between indispensable because of key knowledge acquisition & hoarding, and valuable because of the contribution.
If you are the former - yep you are creating a risk, if you are the latter then not in my view.
Remote working potentially increases the chances of knowledge hoarding - as there are less opportunities to mentor more junior colleagues.
