I realize that there have been a number of replies to this already, but I have a bit of experience with this as well. At both my current employer and my last employer, my office was located several states away from the location(s) of the data center(s) where z/OS was running. While I did have a desk at a company location, I could work from home as well. So I could be remote, attached directly to the company network, or I could VPN into the network.
At each company the support team was spread over multiple locations in multiple states. For a long time, meetings were handled via phone: conference calls or direct calls as appropriate. My present employer is rolling out the Skype for Business suite and we now use Skype for almost all meetings. As part of the roll-out, headsets were made available to everyone, as noise in the office makes the use of the headset's microphone more desirable than the laptop's built-in mic. While our company issued laptops have cameras, we rarely use them. We find it more useful to share our desktops for presentations.
