This is just not true. Specially if your team exists within an organization that works in world wide solutions and interacts with the rest of the world.
Remote can be so much faster and efficient because it's decentralized by nature and it can make everyone's workflows as optimized as possible.
Just because companies push for "onsite" work to justify their downtown real estate doesn't mean it's more productive.
