Office culture

It’s been a really fun week of work so far. We had the management team in town for an offsite on Monday and Tuesday, and then we went out for drinks and dinner with the broader team in New York.

Personally, this in-person connection is exactly what I’ve been missing the last few years in San Francisco. Being able to connect face to face with your colleagues and get to know each other on a much more personal level is just game changing. Working at a small firm is tough and being around your colleagues live is just simply a lot more fun.

It’s also just a much more efficient way to work. Even in this day and age where everyone is seconds away via Slack or Zoom, there’s just something about being able to turn around to someone on the team and ask a question, or grind through a problem together in-person.

The heat and humidity aside, it’s been a great few months back in New York and I’m excited for the years ahead.
