Did you have hotel cubes/offices? If every employee doing blended still has to have their own space in the office, the company loses one of the big advantages of having people work from home. Obviously there are other advantages for WFH that can make it worthwhile for both sides, but reducing real estate costs is one most companies will want to reap.

It's not something I've run into yet, but the moment a company starts hotdesking I'll start looking for the door. I have to customize my workspace and know that its integrity is maintained in my absence in order to be fully productive.

Nope! In both blend scenarios I still had a personal desk: either a cube or a section of long table.

Good point, as I imagine my satisfaction in both scenarios would have decreased with a mandatory shared space.

Although, for a while we were "homeless", leading to ~30 minutes a day trying to find an office / conference room to squat in.
