The same can be said of Wall Street banks — they have significant real estate holdings that would be devalued in a scenario where a sizeable percentage of the workforce never goes back to the office. They have a vested interest in driving utilization of physical spaces.

Meanwhile in tech, I would say folks have been more productive over the pandemic. I certainly have been. So there’s no big push to go back.
