A Thought on Remote Software Engineering Needs I've noticed a trend in job postings for remote software engineers where companies explicitly mention "no agencies." As someone deeply involved in the industry, this makes me curious. Agencies work hard to vet and onboard candidates through rigorous checks, ensuring that the talent they provide is top-notch. They charge for premium services because of the quality and reliability they bring to the table. So, I wonder what the specific concerns or negative experiences are that lead companies to avoid working with agencies. Is it a matter of cost, past experiences, or something else? I'd love to hear thoughts and insights from the community on this. How can agencies better align with what companies need and overcome these hesitations? Looking forward to an open and constructive discussion! #SoftwareEngineering #RemoteWork #TalentAcquisition #TechCommunity #ITAgencies

Did I make the right choice by taking a job on-site over a fully remote job? A few months ago, I found myself looking for a new opportunity. After a lot of interviewing, I faced a pivotal career choice with multiple job offers: take a fully remote role or return to an on-site environment. Having worked remotely since 2020, I had grown accustomed to the benefits it came with - no commute, dogs sleeping at my feet, lunch time peloton exercises, and working in pajama pants. Yet, over time, something felt missing. Software engineering is not just about writing code; it's about the people. Virtual meetings and chat messages have their place, but they often lack the spontaneity and depth of in-person interactions. Since joining United Wholesale Mortgage, the difference has been undeniable. I’ve formed genuine connections with my colleagues, resolved urgent issues in real-time by walking over to a teammate’s desk, and picked up invaluable insights from ambient conversations—things that would never surface in a Slack message. Even casual hallway encounters have led to key discussions that improved our projects. Did I make the right choice by taking a job on-site? 100%
