for many companies that own their own properties I doubt they will maintain work from home policies long term unless Covid19 outlooks are dire but to be honest, if they get that dire and stay there then where you work is the least of the concerns. the issue with work from home is that jobs which are suited for it or can be adapted this require that workers have discipline to do so. for companies willing to have a portion of their employees offsite then HR programs would need to be put into place to help train people how to manage their work life at home and then to train managers in how to properly employ a work from home team. the issue not raised here is the tax component. a collapse of the real estate market will take the tax base down a few notches. this will lead to an increase in finding a replacement and this could include proxy taxes on an employees work from home setup and costs associated with it; a few fees and tariffs here and there. Then comes the non state actors, HOAs and property management companies, whose rules will need to moderated if not outright regulated to prevent putting undue pressure on work from home employees. most can fly under the RADAR because of no increase in external activity; think shipping and receiving; to give it away but cancel culture has its adherents everywhere with people who have nothing better to do than point.
