World Congress 2024

Challenges in transforming a multicultural local-only company to a remote-first

July 18, 2024 13:30 – 14:00 · 30 min Airstream (120)

What this session covers

There were a lot of onboarding challenges, professional and personal, but we successfully integrated 15+ nationalities into our engineering organization.

With the advent of the remote world, we were required to change most of our processes to ensure our team kept its performance correctly.

In this talk, I will discuss our most significant challenges and the strategies we use to overcome them. I will also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of such a strategy.

During the talk, I will show our struggles, ceremonies, and new processes and give a path for companies to succeed and improve their development pace.
