Everett Cook says his organization requires in-person work because remote feels unfulfilling and slows decisions. He'd need to double salaries to attract remote workers, but believes speed only happens when everyone's in the same room syncing constantly.
How do you look at hiring remote versus in-person? What do you think about in terms of that? I want people that wanna be in office. You would have to pay me— Double. You know, to not be able to be in office with other people. Like, I find like being alone in my apartment trying to work, trying to look at a, you know, 13-inch screen as my interaction with other humans, really unfulfilling and also like pretty slow as a decision-making process. We're very big on in-person. We want other people to feel that way as well. It's not for everybody. I completely understand that and respect that there are, you know, many ways to do things. But for us, the only way that I know how to move really fast Put everybody in the same room and get them on the same page really quickly. That way we can all kind of sync, make decisions quickly, and move fast.
