Not only that, but when the promotions, raises and choice projects all go to the people who actually show up in the office, you’ll see things change.

Sure, lots of people will say “i don’t care about those things” which is fine.

But my prediction is that for most roles, slowly but surely work will return to the office.

I honestly don’t know how people thought otherwise. The idea that all this is gonna be permanent just seemed silly to me.

Yes some companies will remain fully remote. Good luck to them. I’ll be curious to see where they land after five years.

Trying to organize a 10,000 person company fully remote seems like a pipe dream. Sure it might work for a few years while there is enough old timers in the mix but after long enough the corporate culture that made the company successful will slowly fracture as all the new hires never get exposed to it.

I dunno man… this all feels like a fad. Any time somebody says “XYZ is here to stay” it almost always means it isn’t gonna stay. Way too hype. Lots of dismissal or outright ignoring all the very real cons. It all just sounds way too good to be true.

What about all the companies that have this happen to them without any remote workers to blame it on?
