I’ll say this. What works for you doesn’t always work for everyone else, and I feel like that’s kind of the point. The CEO/CFO cares more about bringing people back to the office than they do about their employees. I hear you, it’s healthy to interact with people, and If that’s what you need awesome. But a lot of other people don’t feel that same way. I think it’s going to take tolerance on both sides for this paradigm shift to be a success.
It depends on the kind of work you do. My work is very collaborative, and despite trying I've not found online collaboration as effective.
It doesn't help that the people working from home seem to have very different priorities.
It sounds like your working environment is a bit shit and I'd wager that it's not because there are remote workers.
I have to be arbitrarily in the office 1-2 days a week. Its absolutely collaborative work and I have 3-4 different "stand up" meetings a day for various teams. Well, when I'm in the office thise happen with everyone sat at their own desk on Zoom because the team is not all in one location. Being in the office feels completely pointless and there's literally not one task I do that can't be performed from home.
Dude, I’m in that same boat. So much of my team is remote that when I do come into the office all my meetings are still on zoom. I like how you put it, “I’m arbitrarily in the office”
