Just wanted to add that GitLab's Guide to All-Remote is an excellent resource full of practical advice.

To what extent do you believe introversion/extraversion affects people's experience working remotely? (Apart from the specific impact on teambuilding you describe above.)

I'm introverted and this period has kinda been a renaissance for the way I feel about my work. I value the ability to focus quietly and work independently, and if I never have to endure another rush-hour NYC subway commute it'll be too soon.

Those factors are far more valuable to me than the socialization I've lost from being in the office. But I imagine it's different for extraverts.

I'm interested, particularly, in how this difference in perception lines up with work's power dynamics. If (and it's a big if) extraversion is disproportionately represented at the executive level, how does that affect the way management and labor interact?
