Hmm. It only suits certain personality types you mean? Any impressions on what they may be?

  Some find it hard to communicate remotely, whether it's socially or work related. Some people binge on games or porn when they get stuck on something tough. I'd love to say that everyone who has a degree and can do assignments are mature enough, but some people just have self-control problems.

  I manage a group of people and we went fully remote when Covid started last year. Personally,I am a fan of remote work and I don't want to go back to office environment, unless it's literally across the road from where I live. Having said that, I do understand why some people want to be in the office: remote can feel disconnecting. My team occasionally have really tough moments due to work specifics,so they used to go outside and just vent out,talk to each other. You can't really replicate it over Zoom. Some people rely more heavily on those around them for day to day support,so they can struggle when left on their own at home. Not everyone has a good environment to work from home. No company is solving this by saying 'you know what,why don't you get yourself a big house,so you could work quietly'. Heck,even my boss with a nice house was running some meetings from his kids room, because that was the only quite place in his house. For some people,work is life and their colleagues are friends, or at least those they spend some time outside work. It is important for some, while other don't care. Written commutation is difficult for many: people rarely can express themselves well in writing,as opposed to a few min chat face to face. This creates some absurd situation from time to time and it has made me completely rethink some priorities,when hiring people.
