Who says the overseas positions are going to be remote?

There would be communication overhead between teams. If companies are willing to take that, then they shouldn't have any argument against remote work irrespective of location and timezones.

Communication overhead between teams is very different from communication overhead between individual people on a team.

Overseas means remote from the main office. So regardless if they will be forced to be on site at their overseas office they will still be remote compared to their us office.
And guess what - those bros in the us that wanted to be onsite to be creative will now have to communicate clearly with their remote colleagues in india whether they like it or not. But the idiots took away the rights of those in the us while those above them gave zero shits about them anyway and moved lots of jobs abroad.
The winers here? Indians. Good luck and enjoy scuttlebutt, if still employed, suckers.

That or they are opening local offices overseas and expecting people to work on site there.
