>It would be so easy to pick any given set of companies for my narrative though.

Yes, please try to come with convincing case studies. I would love to have ammunition to show benefits of remote work.

Remember though, when citing companies's with remote workers that are successful, that you must control for other variables unrelated to remote workers. The other replies citing Automattic Wordpress and 37Signals did not do that.

> I feel like that is just as dismissable.

I feel the opposite. Companies and managers have a herd mentality. You show them any management technique that demonstrates superior results and they will copy it. Look at Six Sigma, or JIT Just In Time manufacturing, or Henry Ford's assembly line regrouping of manufacturing, etc etc.

Show some evidence that reorganizing your onsite workers as remote workers is The Killer Management Technique (trademark applied patent pending) to blow everyone else out of the water and every company will be doing it.
