Be careful what you wish for ... businesses aren't there for your benefit, they are there for theirs.
And this assumes that everyone can work equally well remote or don't have advantages to working at an office.
Personally the "Water cooler" moments give me plenty of original ideas and have resulted in new product ideas and explorations.

- topkai22 6y agoHaving been fully remote for 4 years now, I've had plenty of water cooler type conversations with other remote employees- humans are social creatures, and with an experienced fully remote work force we end up socializing remotely, including coming up with cool Gonzo ideas. I'm not arguing it's a 1-1 trade off, but it also doesn't go anywhere near zero.
