One major disadvantage if you work remotely for an east coast company is that you have to start work 3 hours earlier than everyone else. The advantage I guess is that you get off with a couple hours left in the business day, so you can run errands after work.

This is what I do. I love it.

And you have meetings first thing in the morning if anyone on your remote team lives on the East Coast.

Sounds amazing.

Start work 5 or 6. Stop work 1-2, have daylight for afternoon/evening activities. Sleep by 9.

Sure a 5am start would suck. But if you can adjust and pull it off, daylight after work all year would be worth it.

Usually it's more like 7 am - 3 pm, but yeah.
