It’s insane to think the loss of remote work is inevitable. My current job is in the beginnings of turning us hybrid and it’s causing talent loss. Our jobs are functionally the same even when sitting in a cubicle because everything we do is still done “remotely”. We still have to login to the VPN, access remote desktops, use browser based systems, communicate via email, etc. Even meetings with upper management are done through teams, because it’s just EASIER to do.
The only thing we gain from going in is the occasional donut.
