You’re describing a distributed organization, not remote. Distributed assumes no home base, no HQ, nothing. Everyone works from home or a co-working space.

SV is staunchly apposed to remote, I can’t even imagine their opinion on distributed.



I live in SV, and while I wouldn't say hiring remote employees is common, it is becoming much more so. Staunchly opposed doesn't sound correct given the other founders I interact with.

And "remote first" is a common term so far as I know: https://stackoverflow.blog/2017/02/08/means-remote-first-com... Though I do also like "distributed" as a description.
