Not surprising. Office space is expensive. And for a lot of white collar jobs, there’s no reason to require people to be there all the time.
If someone isn’t doing their job, that’s performance management, and that happens remote or in person.
The premise of this original thread was just wrong.
Government workers, I’ve been hearing, are going back full time. But then a lot of government jobs incredibly bureaucratic and a lot of the decisions don’t make sense, hence highly unlikely I would be working in the public sector.
