Talk was really fun and light-hearted while being an excellent reminder of what to do and what you go through as you scale an application. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

There was good information here on things to consider when building a team. However, since there were a lot of points, it felt like a lot of broad strokes were made about everything mentioned and little being about remote teamwork specifically

It would have been great to hear specific examples of where things were tried and succeeded or failed with managing remote teams. For example, were any specific decisions made about hiring an outsourced team? Did they integrate easily into the company? Did that ever change? Did someone on the team become more or less responsive/productive after moving to remote? Any frustrations or successes between members after moving remote? That kind of thing would have illustrated the problems, benefits, and solutions better, I think

The Q&A session was a lot of fun though. There was a lot of insightful questions and comments from the audience afterwards (and also, the consensus is out: unlimited PTO is a scam!)

A minor aside: there were a couple of misspellings in the slides, namely "trial" and "quiet"

Team collaboration is an overlooked topic so I'm glad I got a chance to attend this insightful and useful talk on managing remote teams

Refreshing, interactive talk. Thank you!

Powerful talk. Definitely covered ground not everyone takes the time to consider, which is appreciated.
