While it may be controversial, I like that some companies are trying Work from Office, for multiple reasons:
It forces companies to tap into a smaller talent pool locally, which can include more junior employees that may require training. This makes the company more inclusive and gives opportunities to those who might not otherwise have access to them.
Let's not forget that one of the most successful companies in the world, OpenAI, operates mostly from the office. For one, if there truly is an advantage to remote work, then companies that embrace it will naturally outperform those that don't. However, the fact that Meta and other companies are requiring employees to return to the office suggests that there may be benefits to in-person work that can't be replicated remotely.
My company choose an hybrid option that I find interesting. It is remotely only, but hires only locally.

The talent pool of one city and reasonable commutes, combined with the great communication and innovation of video calls looking up someone's nose.

- Gigachad 4y agoChatGPT is the fastest growing consumer product ever created, by a large margin. That’s pretty successful.
- UncleEntity 4y ago> It forces companies to tap into a smaller talent pool locally… But this is meta we’re talking about who are deeply embedded in the one place on earth every software developer wants to go to get the best job opportunities. They might deny it on “moral grounds” but, yeah…
