# Remote Work

Rocket.Chat was born as a global and distributed team, and along these years Rocketeers have been developing their own hacks for remote working. So we gathered these ideas and created a Remote Work Guide dedicated specially to support our new Rocketeers!

# The Culture Avengers

## Using Rocket.Chat Daily

We use Rocket.Chat in our daily routine. We expect you to use it while you are working. Make sure to add the channel `#important` to your favourites, or check it regularly. Company announcements are usually made there.
Since you'll be using the Rocket.Chat platform for daily communication, understanding the functionality of each message feature is crucial to enhance your experience. We have 4 message features:

**Channels:** Created within a team, our channels serve as spaces to facilitate effective communication for individuals with shared interests or those working on similar projects.

**Discussions:** This feature enables focused conversations on broader topics within a team or channel.

**Private Team:** A membership-only team dedicated to more confidential and targeted topics.

**Direct Messages (DMs):** Ideal for personalized communication, when you need to have one-on-one or one-to-many conversations.

## Rocket.Chat's Default Channels

**Rocket.Chat Core Team:** this is where you find announcements of new rocketeers joining, birthday people, out-of-office messages and rocketeers that are in PTO. 

**`#important:`**make sure to check this channel regularly as essential announcements are made here.

**Rocket.Chat Clubs:** this is where you can join clubs aligned with your various interests, making it easy for you to find and become part of communities that resonate with your ideas.

## Best Practices

### Keep People Updated

When you ask someone to help you with something, but this person takes too long to answer, and you end up finding a solution somewhere else, let them know. Often the person didn't answer right away and will try to find the solution before telling you they are looking for one to give you a complete answer (and an asynchronous one). As a gratitude token towards them possibly finding a solution, let them know they don't need to worry about it anymore.

### Use Mentions

Even on DMs, if you need someone's attention immediately, mention them so they will see a red badge beside the room name. Don't overuse it, though. Mentioning people in every DM will make it useless, and people may start ignoring it at all.

### Share Passwords Responsibly

In certain, limited cases, a password or other secret needs to be shared between multiple people. Never share passwords in plaintext (such as a normal Rocket.Chat message or email), but always use a password-sharing tool like Zoho Vault, to which the other person has access to.

### Don't Spam

Don't send the same message to multiple rooms (known as cross-posting) in the hopes that everybody will read it. If you need to send a message to the whole team, send it on #important or the Rocket.Chat Core Team group.

In the same way, don't send the same request to multiple people. If you need someone from a team to do a task, then send in that team's channel, or add to that team's Clickup board.

### Permissions

Every user on the Rocket.Chat server has specific permissions, combined together in a role. You can see most roles a person has in form of a `tag` next to username. Here we explain how we grant them:
Every user on the Rocket.Chat server has specific permissions, combined in a role. You can see most roles a person has in the form of a `tag` next-to username. Here we explain how we grant them:

* The `admin` role is only given to individuals that have a regular need to change and control settings and permissions on the server (engineering squad leads, QA, infrastructure and similar).
* The `admin` role is only given to individuals who have a regular need to change and control settings and permissions on the server (engineering squad leads, QA, infrastructure and similar).
* The `moderator-global` role is given to individuals who manage users and content on a global scale (HR, management, security), such as for adding users to non-owned rooms or teams or deactivating users. Beyond that, it does not contain access to additional server settings.
* The `view-privileged` role is given to individuals who need to know, but not change the current settings of the server (e.g. PMs for troubleshooting). It is single permission.
* Everyone else gets the `user` role and additional permissions only on a room level (e.g. being the owner of a certain room). This role can still create rooms and discussions.

Additional roles with a more granular permission set have to be requested from and documented by the admins.

# The Gabes

Inspired by the most glamorous Hollywood awards, The Gabes are our annual ceremony created exclusively for Rocketeers to praise, compliment, applaud, acclaim, and recognize their fellow team members. Yes, you read that right – actual prizes await the deserving winners.

<figure><img src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/l2FgRLLJgXYkt62bpHCxuV5qMgGoKa1qGyrhjLf4zGSYwsySJCLLSAE4YHmVdLp_9594sYOoXLKGy0avKzSn_C1RbNfixeGAD0g44fL80BJms9lL11rR9CEHi_D2tv9xW5cPxXBq46LXvTHfi0sx4fA" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Over the years, The Gabes has evolved, continually refining its categories to align authentically with our core values. Here's an exclusive peek into our most recent official awards:
