Cons
There are inherent challenges with remote work. Loneliness and isolation are two of the biggest. You can sometimes feel overlooked, and gratitude and compliments feel less personal in a chat instead of hearing someones voice or getting a real pat on the back. Less often but still a challenge in the remote world are that response times can be slower and collaboration can be challenging to fit around different schedules and time zones.
