Do you drink a beer with your friends via Zoom or in person? What’s the difference?

Remote work was never a life long promise. Why do people feel so entitled to it?
It’s a lot easier to withhold perks than take them away,
The office has a non-zero value for people that work collaboratively.
And the three-hour commute is a non-zero cost to worker and employer (lost availability eats into otherwise productive time) alike. The equation isn’t one-way
I’ve worked remote for 12 years and occasionally go in house (in the office) for a project and I think you get better quality work in person in most cases. There are certainly some great remote teams but I find accountability much higher in person. Apple doesn’t innovate less because they want people in their offices three days a week.
Ok. Fair point.
They're no longer the most innovative companies. Big, yes, profitable, yes, but they have been riding the same barely changed cash cows for the past decade.

Well considering Apple is at its heat a hardware company that pretty understandable. A lot of what Apple does is extremely sensitive and not something you want accessible from remote locations you cant control. Same applies to Google.
Apple and Google managed to become trillion dollar companies doing things the way they are. Im pretty sure they have a better grip on how to run a business than you do.
