"My goal is to slowly gather Team Members in our Portland office but leave our Video Production and Teaching in Orlando (it’s affordable there and the office is established, so no need to move it). Alan, my Chief Product Officer, is moving his family to Portland as well so we can work together daily."

So is the eventual goal to just have several different offices but no remote workers?



No, we'll always have remote Team Members. It allows us to hire the best people in the country.

We'll just have a concentration in Portland and Orlando.


> Portland and Orlando

Completely off topic, but I always do a bit of a double take when I realize that from Florida, Portland is a lot farther away than, say Bogotá or Caracas. I guess you get used to looking at US maps without any context as a kid.


Yes, but those 40 feet through US customs all too often turns out to be a long trip indeed.


It allows us to hire the best people in the country.

World, no?


Yes, technically. But we're still trying to keep our general group of Employees US-based to make the quarterly meetups and online meetings more achievable.
