The author, who works remotely for Strapi, a 100% remote-first company, has been adapting to working from home and finding ways to stay connected with colleagues despite the physical distance. The company uses various tools such as onboarding processes, bots, and regular meetings to facilitate communication and socialization among employees. To overcome the lack of in-person interactions, the author established an office space downtown that they use frequently, taking advantage of a subsidized co-working space budget offered by Strapi. This setup has allowed them to stay productive while still enjoying the freedom of remote work. The company's emphasis on teamwork, communication, and alignment of mindset is essential for its success, and the author looks forward to many years of growth and learning in this new work environment.
