5 hilarious but true principles of remote work for startups
Welcome to the era where your office can range from a beach in Bali (yes, I've been there for almost a year!) to your grandma's attic (and yes, I've seen that happen, too). I'm part of a remote-first company, a concept that often raises eyebrows since it's a venture capital firm.
