### [The Remote Manifesto](https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/all-remote/#the-remote-manifesto) <a href="#the-remote-manifesto" id="the-remote-manifesto"></a>

All-remote work promotes:

* Hiring and working from all over the world *instead of* from a central location.
* Flexible working hours *over* set working hours.
* Writing down and recording knowledge *over* verbal explanations.
* Written down processes *over* on-the-job training.
* Public sharing of information *over* need-to-know access.
* Opening up every document for editing by anyone *over* top-down control of documents.
* Asynchronous communication *over* synchronous communication.
* The results of work *over* the hours put in.
* Formal communication channels *over* informal communication channels.
