Upvoted because you’ve definitely touched on a very real problem that needs to be addressed.
But you’re completely wrong about the cause. The problem is companies with a bad culture. @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me said it brilliantly in a comment further up the thread, and I did my best (less elegant) job of explaining it above that. The company needs to take steps to encourage a good relationships between people, for example with casual and non-work-related chats in the chat app of choice, or by having people frequently working on problems in pairs instead of solo, especially when first starting out.
I had better relationships with my coworkers fully remotely at my last job than I do at my current job despite being in the office frequently. And that’s all down to how the company manages its culture.
I disagree. Good culture is sometimes an accident. And folks in charge like to take credit for that accident working out
Sure, that’s absolutely the case.
But that wasn’t my point. My point was that the experience with WFH comes down entirely to the culture, and if you’re feeling isolated when WFH it’s not a fault of WFH, it’s a problem with your company’s work culture.
