>How about Stripe? They recently announced that their 5th engineering hub would be fully remote: https://stripe.com/blog/remote-hub

Stripe is doing what many other older companies already do: have a core of on-site office workers but also open a satellite office that has remote workers.

Google and Microsoft also have pockets of remote workers.

Again, I don't think Stripe's 5th hub being "remote" is going to radically convince a lot of business managers. But that blog announcement is recently dated May 2 2019 so it's too early to predict its potential influence.

Do you think it will really turn the heads of business leaders?
