@jessegenet I largely disagree as there's nuance: - bi-weekly is fine for trusted high-performers - any 1:1 is a waste of time if you're not doing them right - you shouldn't have more than 8-10 direct reports so the scaling context is irrelevant (unless you're scaling improperly)

@Jason Jason if you listen closely this is about commuting and remote work. She has a point. Forcing people to spend 2 hours a day in a car or on a train sucks. I’m glad this generation is pushing back.
