Working remotely and working asynchronously are two very different things. COVID didn't necessitate asynchronous work by any stretch, so I think it will take some time for even the tech industry to move toward that. If for no other reason because it required much better communication skills than probably 80% of people have. A lot of developers, regardless of skill level, would not do very well in a truly asynchronous environment.
