Companies in the pot industry are obviously going to be outliers. Its also already well known that cannabis and other drugs are highly prevalent in the food service industry.
As far as during work, the few places that could allow/tolerate use are the ones that don't care enough to have a policy anyway.
At work social events I can see attitudes shifting in some circles such that it might be acceptable to consume although there are some practicalities that make it difficult since there are rules about smoking/vaping indoors.
Additionally just as sharing beverages is uncommon at a work-social event, sharing a cannabis product like you would with close/casual friends is going to be a barrier. Everyone smoking their own joint/pipe is also less probable because the level of intoxication is quite high per joint/bowl/etc.
Other cannabis products such as edibles may be a possibility but there long duration and onset also makes them less practical plus you have to consider that eating an edible is such a non-event that it is hardly comparable to having a beer with coworkers over a long meal and/or discussion.
The extent I see cannabis being accepted at most work social functions is a BYO policy at outdoor/mixed settings.
However, I could see cannabis becoming more accepted at work (social)retreats which are typically outside, last at least a day or longer, and focus more on bonding and relaxing.
