If there was an option to choose "Not strongly correlated either way", I would've chosen it.

trick question tbh the real answer is 'I'm not nervous either way' because when you really build your startup with the right mission at heart and a laser focus on customers, you end up escaping competition (remote or not) Also, competition is for losers (Peter Thiel)

A fully in person team in current times gives the vibe of a cult. And cults are dangerous.

Fully remote, because they figured out how to work asynchronously. Asynchronous communication is more efficient, but requires more skill and shared context.

if you are nervous about a competition coz of their working style (remote or in person), you picked a silly enough problem or were unworthy to compete with.

That would not be material compared with: experience of founders, strength of backers, money in bank, etc. I think that fully remote teams can be great w/the right people/money; in-person teams can fail if founders & backers are not strong & no $ in bank. IMHO

Neither. It’s all about the team executing whether in person or remote.

It depends on where they are located - Bay Area or other hubs, I know they can hire talent and in person gives them an team-cohesiveness edge. But if they are elsewhere, they might have to be online to attract outstanding team members

Fully in person, if they live in the same house. Fully remote because saved commute time = building time.

Great to see this info!! Thanks for sharing. 😊
