I have to agree with this. Most of my immediate team are in another continent, others 100 miles away. I'm used to working 'remotely' to my team, but still from the office. The office is my social space, where the company culture is, where I go out for lunch with work friends etc. I've worked at my company for a while, so luckily already know a good number of stakeholders around the business. I hate to think how bad it would be for new starters joining the company and only really being exposed to their direct team. Meeting people at the coffee machine or at a lunch area may not seem important but it's what made me love my workplace. The C level has completely changed three times in my time here, but our culture lives on in the people. If it wasn't for those connections and sense of belonging, I may no longer still be working here. I don't want to be forced into going back to my 3hr daily commute, but I wouldn't mind easing back into the occasional office visit.
