Myself and a number of people I know have flatly said they will not return to the office. Occasional visits or team meetings are ok, but regular office time is off the table. But the place I work has publicly announced that they surprisingly discovered overall equal or better productivity during COVID, even despite the learning curve of everyone going remote. I believe that much of the long term success of remote work depends on upper management being open to the idea and willing to postpone judgement until adequate time (a year) has passed. It may not really matter, though, because it's possible that COVID and other similar global problems will come up often enough to forever change how we operate as human societies.
