I think the office as a concept will need to change, and is going to change. We already started changing it for the worse decades ago with open spaces, non-permanent workplaces and so on. The thing we fear losing out on is the social aspect where you learn to understand people by meeting them more and observing them work. You see when they are happy and or stressed, even when you don't have a face-to-face call. You can have unplanned conversations. I have been remote for 10 years but I do understand the value in this. The idea of going to an office against your will to sit there quietly and work (or even do video calls), is obviously going away companies aren't going to afford making people do that, because of all things you can do with an edge in compensation, that feels like the worst investment. We need more models for teams than just "office", "remote" or "hybrid". We need "commute hybrid" where everyone can come in regularly say once a week, and "travel hybrid" where people can show up for say one week per quarter or similar. The problem as I see it is choosing one of these models, and making it work for a team or company. What do you do if you have a team that is "commute hybrid" while some are "travel hybrid" or fully remote? (I'm in that situation myself now and it's not without friction).
