I think even if you stipulate for purposes of discussion that a lot of companies in the tech space broadly and elsewhere are going to be more flexible in the future, that still leaves WFH/Remote to cover a lot of territory:
- WFH or in-office 2-3 days per week
- Office every Wednesday
- Team get-together once a month
- Remote in the same/adjacent time zone
- Remote anywhere you want that we can legally hire you (seems unlikely)
- Remote pay-adjusted (or not)
- Whether there is an office or not
In general, I expect the extreme cases will be fairly rare but pretty much every one of the scenarios (as well as whether they're mandatory or optional) will drive different decisions relative to 5-days a week in the office.
