WW, here's something else that just came to mind. During my first gig as a
tech writer, my manager worked from home and was on the opposite coast from
me. Although we had all the benefits of email, shared drives and instant
messaging, this still created minor problems down the road when deadlines
were an issue.
Having a manager that is onsite with you is a huge bonus (IMO). This might
be something that you'll want to determine during your interview.
