I work at a small company, around 5 paid workers and around 5 interns most of the time.
Since 2020 we work remote most of the time.
And since then, half of the interns we get don't even live close.
We have a group calls running all the time.
Even if we go to office once in a while (around once per week currently, only the boss, me and one other paid worker), we can't turn off the call, since not everybody can just come to office.
And coming to office makes communication with people even more difficult, since only one person per room can join the call, else we get echo effects.
And with the continuously running group call it's almost as if we were in office.
If you need something, just ask somebody directly. No need to wait for meetings or write a mail or something.
If I want to tallk to a single person, I can just enter another call with just this person.
This also makes work with interns pretty comfortable. They can just ask if they have a problem, and they can share screen.
