I feel this will be highly unusual given that almost every company I see has something like an offsite or a retreat advertised on their careers page.

First off, I understand why companies do this. There are a couple reasons they do this.

However, I'm an introvert. I understand some of you reading may not be, so perhaps you'll have a hard time relating. Ignore that feeling while reading this and please try to provide an objective response this post if you can. I'm not posting this to start a digression about remote work or people's personalities.

Are there any companies that don't do this? Are there any companies that let you actually work remotely without these week long excursions?

As a fairly introverted person these things fill me with some amount of dread. Luckily haven't had to attend any so far, but I don't know how long that will continue.

The raise of remote work has been a blessing and a curse in this respect -- for me at least.
