> Historically, Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc were very office-centric. What's ironic about this, is that when I worked at Google in Mountain View about ten years ago, easily 80-90% of my meetings were via video conference. Even folks who worked on the same campus preferred to book a conference room and dial in, rather than walk or bike over to another building. Not to mention my colleagues in Zurich, Dublin, etc. (SRE teams at Google are split across timezones, to make on-call less painful.)
