Agree with you, I have no issues with short commutes. However one place I worked at pre-pandemic had a lot of hot desks but unfortunately not enough to sustain the amount of people who worked there (800 employees only 600 desks). This plus a clear desk policy made the place sterile and I regularly had to find some corner somewhere to try and work, usually on a little chair with no desk.
I had a full office and decent chair at home, but despite this, it was always frowned on when someome wfh.

- _joel 5y agoYep, it was very much an old school company pretending to be agile by saying they were. It came about after a merger of the smaller offices (which had ample parking and seats), so I think the agile may have been code for cost-cutting. We had to battle to get moveable whiteboards.
