Not my experience. Video streams don't leave evidence. Having been harrassed by a group of colleagues during covid, it felt worse in person but it was also easier to circumvent and defend in the office. The distance to changing team was shorter in the office, since I had the opportunity to network while at work. Remote work means you mostly talk to the same people. Another example of that, not related to harrassment: First time I spoke to someone who had once spoken to a customer was 7 months into a job, during my first in-office lunch break. It is amazing that companies can be "customer and usability driven" yet almost make a deliberate effort to prevent programmers from talking to end users. Being in office actually got me closer to customers (being able to talk to sales and support without scheduling a meeting).
