Key Insight
Not all remote jobs are equal. The company type determines your career success and work experience.
Remote-Friendly Companies (The Trap)
What they are: Office-based companies allowing some remote work. Office remains central, remote workers are secondary.
How they operate:
- Leadership works from office daily
- Real decisions happen in-person (break rooms, hallways)
- Remote workers miss informal conversations and networking
The problem: Career invisibility. You get flexibility but sacrifice advancement opportunities.
Reality check:
- Fight for visibility daily
- Overcompensate with 24/7 availability
- Higher burnout from proving worth
