The most frustrating thing about working remote was the complete lack of documentation around anything -- meetings, requirements, internal frameworks/libraries, etc. Good for them for emphasizing documentation.

I lost track of the amount of times I was told to "look at the source code" when asking about documentation for the internal framework.

Also fun was being assigned a feature and having it's functionality explained over the phone, with any subsequent follow-up being met with "Didn't we already talk about this"?

I never would have thought that a remote based team would have the worst documentation out of anywhere I've worked, but that's exactly what happened.
