The evidence is not in favor of long term WFH though.
The evidence shows that WFH work creep is a thing - you get people who dont know how to turn off, and bosses who think they can get more out of you since you are a few feet away from your laptop.
There is also a decrease in creativity and networking - evidence again shows that a good team has someone who is very tuned to the emotional and mental states of the people around them doing a lot of bridging.
Finally - the people who work at office get more money over time, unless the firm takes active measures to combat these biases.
