I just landed an excellent job that will challenge me in my career. I work in Cloud. The great thing besides nearly doubling my salary is that I work remote.
This is a double edge sword for me. Where I came from in my previous company was a Google-esque company. Very engaging and frenetic in a good way. You always had people around you. It was to a point it was almost invasive, but the company culture changed a few years back and now it's being a bit stagnant and has silos.
I still thing going in the office and having the option to work from home on days is great. I'm not sure about the 100% remote thing. I'm a bit scared that I will self isolate myself.I also think that I will be one of the younger guys there being in my early 30s. My last company much of the work force was under 35. So there may be a slight culture shift for me.
The company itself seems very engaging and still much into a start up mode and there will be travel. No doubt about the company. I just feel that remote work will make me go crazy and I won't be able to have a social life. I fear being alone.
What do you guys do to cope with this?
