I did read it and my opinion stays the same.

To be in 5 days a week is nonsense.

A hybrid schedule would allow for the same collaboration and innovation. 3 days and office and 2 at home. Everyone wins.

Few natural born enemies exist, fewer still as deep and natural as the animosity between machinery and maintenance.

I'm full remote...nothing says insulting like having to badge in then then call India to make sure the kids over there actually got some work done.

Full transparency, I'm not arguing against full remote - I 100% support it. I've done it and it doesn't work for me - I like being in the office a few days a week, but full onsite for desk jobs is asinine.

I'm ok with hybrid for the people that need that, but mandating it means it's probably not a company I want to work for.

Exactly.

I'm in the office 2x/week, and it's the perfect balance for us. We pack those two days w/ collaboration, which leaves the other three relatively open for individual work. And the best part about 2x/week is that you could theoretically fit twice the workers in the same physical space, which should reduce corporate leasing costs.
