I was at a FAANG for years. I was the ONLY ONE on my team in the office - the rest of my team was in London. So I would literally drive to the multi-million dollar office on multi-million dollar real estate then dial up some people in London from my laptop.
During my exit interview after I resigned, I told my director I was leaving partially because I wanted to work remotely more and that they should either encourage or at least allow more WFH. She laughed, said they don't do that there, and told me that I'd be back.
Now they're all working from home and I'm with a new remote-friendly company with no plans on ever going back to the FAANG world. Good riddance.
