I think we agree. There are so many company topologies/contexts/situations that a one-size-fits-all answer does not exist.
That was really the point of my post. Some companies are happy to switch to 3-days in the office, and we should respect them as much as the ones that go full remote.
- lmeyerov 5y agoI like how an MIT CS professor put it to me once: He stays home to work, and goes to work to socialize. Most people are not digitally native, and as in my original comment, management layers are especially social. So I'd expect deep work orgs to be more remote-friendly: small technical startups like ours are happy fully remote, and it's an advantage. In contrast, most sales/marketing/large orgs are less remote-friendly: 1+ days in office, bad promotion paths for fully remote, ... . Not inherent and always exceptions, but just about what's typical, natural, & easy.
