Group work is really nice when you're working with intelligent, competent and reliable people. I have worked in amazing groups before and sometimes, I really miss it.
But I absolutely hate when I am forced to work on a project with unmotivated colleagues that do their bare minimum and use ChatGPT for everything. In my last job I was often fixing or doing their work, increasing my own workload.
At the moment, I am working alone and remote. I'm getting loads of shit done and I can finally breathe. Sometimes I wish I had at least one competent colleague again, though. But times are tough and good employees cost money...
