How we’re building a remote-first team culture (aka virtual event ideas that you’re welcome to steal)Removed

As an engineering-centric organization with 60%+ remote employees across multiple time-zones, the company created various activities to foster camaraderie during the COVID-19 pandemic. The People Manager implemented a range of events, including "Timescale Family Feud", "Beer o'clock", and Water cooler Chats, which have improved team connection and communication. These activities catered to different preferences and formats, such as organic conversations in Cawfee Tawks and structured discussions in Munch 'n Learns. By making events accessible and promoting inclusivity, the company has strengthened its remote team culture, and the author shares their experiences and advice for other teams looking to build strong connections amidst remote work challenges.
