This is a rather optimistic view. Historically speaking, the capitalist class generally wields enough financial and political power to prevent a massive transfer of power to workers. We've seen this with the buildup and erosion of labor movements in the 20th century and since.
So whatever inherit or natural benefits may come about for workers due to the remote work boom, it's likely these gains will be purposefully offset.
