I'm definitely "wasting" less time and getting more work done each day working from home than I did back when I was going to the office.
Yeah, I'm on a hybrid schedule and the days I go into the office are basically social and meetings.
I quit my last job when they started threatening to force us to go hybrid.
I live close enough to my current employer's headquarters to commute daily, but they literally don't have sufficient space to put everyone, so virtually my entire department is 100% work-from-home.
The current CTO shot his mouth off at one time about requiring us to be in-office without realizing how much blowback there would be. But the timeline he had in mind is beyond unrealistic, and middle management told us lower-on-the-totem-pole folks as much.
Yeah, it's really weird that everyone got a bug in their ass about rolling back WFH. As you said, people (let's say developers, doesn't apply to every job) are more productive if they have a quiet home office as opposed to a busy open plan setup.
Love open plans. We all know developers are naturally social creatures.
Exactly, love it.
