I don't see a hybrid model working well at all. The scenarios that have been thrown around at my company are like these: 1. Everyone comes back to the office (extremely unpopular) 2. Everyone continues to WFH (gives management the hives) 3. Some teams WFH full-time, while others go BTTO). 4. A hybrid schedule where you come into the office once a week, and WFH the remainder. I don't see how these can work. BTTO is going to cause huge issues, the cat is out of the bag. And if some teams get to WFH, but others don't then that will cause turmoil as well. A hybrid schedule seems to be the worst option actually. Say that everyone has to come in on Mondays for team meetings. Then Tue-Friday, the office is a ghost town. If you're required to come in one day a week (but you can choose), then the odds are the most of the office will be empty, and that's a waste of company resources in having an office sized for pre-COVID times. If a hybrid BTTO plan is for F2F with mgmt, then it'll need to be mandatory, on the same day. Otherwise my poor manager has to be in the office 5 days a week. Eventually, mgmt will just require everyone to come BTTO. Changes like what COVID caused aren't bells you can unring. It's like having women work in factories during WW2. Sure when the troops return home, things seem to go back to "normal", but that's just delaying the change. Remote work is here to stay, and the companies that embrace it will have a leg up. All the friction that we experienced in the las year will diminish over time with faster/better Internet, with workflows and communication tools that are better suited to WFH.
