The Cookie crew are no strangers to working remotely. For the past 10 years, our small team operates with people across various cities around the globe, with the full-time crew each living in a different state here in America. Working remote has incredible benefits; lifestyle freedom, increased autonomy and the ability to take your kids to the doctor without taking vacation time.
With every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The challenges are abound with remote work, though most of it revolves around the human element. Communication. In this live stream I will share two main lessons CG Cookie has learned and share some stories of our remote life and how we work. Talk a little bit about the technology we embrace and the ones we steer away from.
Depending on the day, will even have some Cookie Crew guests come on to answer questions and share their story.
Ah, children.

Don't hear it, but see your eyes rolling Wes. :-)
The main CGC office is in Geneva, IL. We had our last company retreat there.
QUESTION: Have you ever thought about a headquarter like a studio ? If yes, why didn't you open such a studio ? Because of the benefits of remote work ?
LOL, ummm restroom pondering.

It's different for all of us. Definitely requires the type of person that knows how to be proactive and take initiative.
