We scored 10.5 on GitLab's '12 Steps to Better Remote' test! 🎉

GitLab recently released their "12 Steps to Better Remote" test, a 12-question assessment of remote operations. Checkly, a fully remote startup with 13 employees across 5 countries, took the test and scored 10.5/12. They found that several key areas align well with best practices, including explicit values documentation, asynchronous communication tools, and a focus on transparency. However, they also identified some areas for improvement, such as formalizing informal communication and investing in performance feedback systems. Checkly plans to invest energy in addressing these areas to maintain their high score. By sharing their results publicly, the company aims to set an example for other remote teams and organizations.
