I think there's a valid argument for the premise because office and remote environments are very different and people default to working like they're in an office, but this piece reads like shit.

> At least 10 times a day, Erika Becker, who works as a sales development manager at a technology company called Verkada, turns to her boss with questions. “Did I handle that correctly?” she asks. “What could I have done better?”

All I could think when I read this first paragraph is, "she sounds incompetent". Feedback 10x a day makes zero sense once you have basic competence. You need much longer feedback loops for more complex and important skills.

Feedback is guidance. If you need guidance 10x a day...

30m once a week is a lot of time for feedback (Perhaps too much) if you're smart about using the time, and it's way more useful than 10x a day.
