Three and a half years after the start of the pandemic, employers are getting serious about increasing the amount of time workers spend in the office and trying new strategies to overcome resistance.

    My bet is that in 2 years we’ll see a stark devide in talent in traditional Vs remote first companies with the latter getting pick of the litter so to speak.

      This is already happening. Remote roles are getting the cream of the crop while in office roles are getting the left overs.

      People that are good and know it are not applying to in office jobs. Why would they sacrifice an additional 5-10 hours a week for no more pay and shitty open offices?

        I mean the problem isn’t even ‘no more pay,’ you are paid less if you work in an office. All the resources you use to commute cost more money than internet, which you’re paying for anyway if you’re alive in current year. Why would you willing take a pay cut, commit yourself to 5-10 unpaid hours of commuting, and ensure that you produce worse work and are less productive and producing that work while working in the most mentally and emotionally draining environments to ever be devised?

          Not to mention that every fully or even partially remote role I’ve had let me expense some or all of my Internet and cell phone.
