I strongly disagree. I'm at a 100% remote company. After 15 years in the industry at startups and big companies (Microsoft, Lexmark), I can say that this is the most productive team I've ever worked with. Our collaboration is every bit as good as in-office. We whiteboard with live-coding/tooling instead. Works like a charm. We have a casual hangout meeting once a week with the dev team where we share what we learned, etc. It's awesome. I'm never going back to an office, if I can help it.

I recently interviewed at a startup which is located thousand miles from where I live, I was ready to join if they allow remote. They rejected because "remote doesn't get any thing done". I said one thing, "look at gitlab" (among other things in the friendly conversation). The stereotype that we have to work late, be in an office are just illusion.
