- Remote roles can somehow work for certain personality types or professions—such as scientists, writers, or artists—who thrive in solitude, prefer to think deeply, need clarity, or simply don’t enjoy crowds.

- However, remote work is generally not ideal for business, ops or engineering roles, where being close to the core problems—and the people solving them—is often essential. It's also not recommended for those who dislike being home all day.

- In a remote setup, you either need to already know what you’re doing or be fully prepared to manage yourself. We don’t know you personally and can’t offer much direct help. But based on your post, it sounds like you’re capable of figuring it out. This isn’t rocket science—just be direct with your team, ask the same questions you’ve raised here, and don’t hesitate to request support when needed. Of course, like everyone already said, communicate and communicate.

- Keep in mind that remote roles can become problematic if you have family, kids, or pets who are going to interrupt you every 30 minutes—there’s often little you can do to control those distractions.
