It would seem that making the company remote-first would drive the exact changes that managers often want to make anyway.

    In my experiences (multiple), in-person work is primarily about the appearance of work, and not nearly as much about the actual work. I've tried to properly document basic reasonings and how-to's for future people in the roles, and told that wasn't really the work needed done. Then again, management failed to understand that onboardinng and more routine-ish tasks could be documented and sped up. I jumped ship from my previous job (that was forced WfH with grumblings of returning any day now), to a 100% true remotework position. I'll *NEVER* go back to a hybrid or WfW job again.
