I think remote first is more efficient for companies because they have a wider pool of candidates to select from. I think the productivity bump during covid WFH was actually due to there being little else to do and people had not established proper work boundaries. I still think individuals are, for the most part, more productive in the office. However, smart companies will recognise that top talent will refuse to come in every day.

> I think remote first is more efficient for companies because they have a wider pool of candidates to select from. Its efficient for high paying companies in high COL areas. It is going to suck if you're trying to get a developer in a small town and never had to pay much before.

  If another company can produce more value from the employees labor and the employee brings more money into their local community, isn't that better for both the employee and the small town? It's better than the employee having to leave the small town to get the higher salary. The only one that loses is the capital owner that could previously make more money off of the employees that would stay despite there being better opportunities elsewhere.
