Yeah I can see the double edged sword. I guess "WFH if you want" is doing some heavy lifting in my reply. My best friend is permanant remote with no office and lives alone and I bet it's isolating. Where as I have kids, wife and a shit tonne of chores so I don't get the same isolation issues but I could definitely see some instances where it could be an issue.
I think the hybrid model is perfect. I'll go to the office for important meetings, so I don't have distractions and can truly get in the zone.
Agreed. My own problem is that my role is very disconnected from my local office - so it was isolating even before I was made WFH.
At the same time, though, isolating wearing business casual (I've yet to find a business casual get-up I've found 100% comfortable), or isolating while getting to work in boxers if I so choose. Hmm. Tough choice :p
Try get involved in some teams chats, hell even call some people for a chat about work.
Maybe arrange a 3 monthly pub quiz or meal out with the team. People are receptive to that kind of thing and can really bond the team.
