100% agree. I think this would even apply to non-remote jobs too.
I used to work remotely as a freelancer and I miss it so much. I now work in-house at an agency and everyone here fails so miserably at writing. Almost all discussion is verbal, nothing is documented and so much double-work happens it's not even funny.
To make matters worse, the agency doesn't use any project management software. So all projects have seemingly imminent deadlines. It's miserable.
If our team was more apt to learn, adapt and document more, we'd probably be a lot happier.
