A lot of you must be working from home for the very first time in your life, and we know it ain't as easy or simple as you may have originally thought.
We are a remote-first company since our inception in 2013, and we do have a few insights to share with you.
In this particular episode, we are sharing some of the tools that we use, and we have divided them under 7 different categories, apart from also suggesting some alternatives.
We believe this stack of tools not only boosts our productivity, but they also ensure that our WFH (work from home) experience is fun, collaborative, engaging, and efficient.
So check this episode to maximize your WFH productivity!
