I think this might benefit my company, we are 2-3 in the office and 2-3 remote (each working from home) for practically every meeting.

I'm pretty sure it'll not be accepted though, I'm trying to figure out why I feel that way. Maybe it feels rude? Maybe because we've always done it this way? Maybe because we do have special equipment for it that should work fine? I'm not sure which weighs how heavy or if there is one main reason. People never expressed much friction but I'm convinced that a measurable percentage of words are just lost that wouldn't be in real life.

Edit: I should add that none of us are speaking their native language (Dutch, German, Spanish, sometimes Italian, with reasonable English as common language). It's hard to improve everyone's English significantly without large investment but the meeting can at least facilitate communication in the best way possible. /edit

Do you have any thoughts on how to approach this? Maybe we should try both alongside for two weeks and ask the remotes which they found worked better, or something else?
