Zapier CEO Wade Foster on scaling a remote team up to 300 employees

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
When Zapier was founded in 2011, it was a side project for three friends from Missouri who wanted to make it easier to connect any one web
app to another
and they did it all with a team that is entirely remote.I chatted with Zapier co-founder and CEO Wade Foster to find out why they decided
to go remote from the start, and how the company addresses the challenges of scaling up a distributed team
Missouri for [Y Combinator]
At the tail end of that, Mike, one of my co-founders, moved back to Missouri to be with his then-girlfriend/now-wife as she was wrapping law
school
So we were remote by necessity there.
