No. You're probably in the minority if you would go so far as to say "hate", but we don't need to agree. We just need to allow people to do whatever works best for them.

This can be true for a person who also prefers working from home. E.g. myself. Not every combination of environment, people, and project works out the way you've described - in fact, I'd say the majority do not, purely statistically. Ideally people are working in whatever way most suits them at the time. Sometimes this means having a great time working with a group in person, and sometimes this means having a great time working with a group remotely.
- overvale 3y agoYou’re probably right. Working from home and working in an office both come with benefits and drawbacks. But having done both, I would say that for me personally the drawbacks of working from home are greater than the drawbacks of working in an office, when viewed in the aggregate. I know it’s not that way for everyone, or for every role, or for every project, but in the grand scheme of things the advantages of an office outweigh the advantages of working from home. For me.
