Where has the "open office" fad ended? It seems like companies say it's a great idea even when presented with evidence to the contrary and they never back down or reverse course

The fad ended and became the norm. Like Agile/Scrum.

hoping wfh/remote kills the cargo culted agile/scrum stuff.

a cute one liner, Regularly scheduled video chat meetings are anti pattern for remote work.

That's my feeling at the moment. trying to schedule people around the world to do video chats is a lost cause. Its also trying to cram the office experience into remote work. Video chats are a waste, no one is engaged, probably because most meetings are useless. Like stand ups, who's listening? We were only engaged becasue its socially awkward to not be in person. Now, I can turn my camera and mic off and stretch until I hear my name or just do my work. There's my stream of thought and slight rant.

We keep our standups to less than 1 minute per person. 5 minutes in and out.
