Companies not offering remote work, will become a thing of the past *. For every one office bringing people back, their are 5 going to a hybrid/remote option. Ask anyone under 40 if they prefer WFH or going into an outdated office. No one is worried about the older crowd praising coming back to the office…they be phased out in the next 10 years and we’ll all realize they just wanted people back because they had massive real estate investments in this buildings.

Lol your posting this in the wrong bowl. Most non enterprise sized SF partners were fully remote long before Covid.
My employer in 2016 with 300+ people was fully remote
If an IT/Consulting company is not offering fully remote as an option, then good luck for their survival!
I think fully remote is bad. I also think wfo is a distraction. I favor hybrid and client’s sites. The saddest is the change of speech saying wfh is bad when just a few months back we pitched digital HQ
I respectfully disagree.
Even when I worked for large consulting firms, if I wasn't at client site, being at the office was only as needed. These very large consulting firms don't have the office space to host all of their staff at their offices. Their whole model was that you were at client location and client provided space and cost of travel. With clients not really willing to do that at that scale anymore, I doubt consulting companies are going to mandate everyone to the office.
My entire professional life I worked remote. I treat wfh like going to the office: shower, dress up (pants and button down shirt) and on time. Never had performance issues. Not for everyone though.

Definitely disagree. For a few reasons that are demonstrably true:
- Companies benefit by not spending obscene amounts of money on physical space, upkeep and infrastructure. That helps the bottom line and to reinvest in other areas. It’s FAR cheaper to maintain a remote workforce.
- Employee satisfaction goes up, leading to less overall turnover.
- Talent pool widens tremendously, and no need to offer costly relocation packages.
Am I saying remote work is good for *everyone*? No, and I don’t think it should be foisted upon people who would prefer not to. This gives rise to the resurgence in coworking spaces for people who would rather go to a physical office.

I was remote long before COVID and I will continue to be.
