The solution to this conundrum is to give people a choice.

Except that if most choose full time remote, then those who favour hybrid (like me) or RTO have their choice made for them wrt collaboration and the other reasons given in the parent comment, so unfortunately, no, that's not really a solution.




A bunch of reluctantly-at-the-office coworkers isn't going to be the collaboration utopia you're hoping for. If you end up with an empty office because everyone chose WFH, switch companies.

Eventually things will balance out, with people in companies that have the right balance for them.


Many positives to remote work, but an improvement in collaboration and team ethos is hardly one of them!

If most people choose full time remote if given the option then it's pretty selfish to demand they all go to the office because you prefer it.


Its not as simple as a democratic choice, that was my point. Work isn't like that.
