Despite rising company mandates, actual in-office attendance is flat. Remote work has stabilized at about a quarter of all work time, showing that five years of flexibility has created a “new normal” that employees are unwilling to give up.

Despite being required people resist.

I am always surprised by the amount of 'work from home' people who openly admit how little work they actually do from home. Most that I know report 1-2 hours of work per day and spend the rest of their time tackling chores, mowing the lawn, grocery shopping, going to the gym, playing video games, golfing etc. They seem proud to tell me how little they actually do and I never understand why they seem so proud of it... 🤷‍♂️

Look at James: He often works from home.

Dude our production levels have gone way up working 50/50. 100% working in the office is just not smart and people don't like it so why do it. People have targets so why don't give them the freedom to get to them their own way? The old ways are over.

Because even if you go to the office you finish your work in two to three hours and the rest is wasted time. At least when working remotely I don’t have to be pretending to do nonexistent work. Tbh offices are redundant nowadays because you’re often working with people outside the country and there’s no point in going to the office just to have remote meetings

As it should. Remote work is just efficient. No more travel time is great. Work from anywhere in the world is great

This return-to-office push by employers and the weak turnout might just speed them toward automation. If you can do your job from home, it’s already happening on the internet: emails, Slack, spreadsheets, Zoom calls… it’s all on the electronic highway. And companies are building AI agents that live on that same highway. They don’t complain about commutes, don’t resist mandates, and can work together 24/7. So while people dig in about not going back to the office, employers might just shrug and say: “Fine, meet Mrs. AI. She’ll take it from here.” That’s the real risk. Remote work proved most jobs don’t need to be in-person but will it also prove that most of those jobs are just data flows waiting to be automated?

I read they making this mandate so they have a reason to fire them bc they want to scale back and start using Mrs. AI

Empower your employees don’t pressure them to sit in traffic for an average of 2.5 hrs per day being unproductive and polluting the planet with carbon emissions

My team are 100% wfh. It has a lot of challenges building company culture and training etc We are trying to go back to more office days. Not sure how it will go

I am WFH and can say that I am equally (if not more) productive, and MUCH happier because I can spend time with family instead of sitting in traffic. Hire the best then let them do their work. Doesn’t matter where that is.

I've been fully remote since 2014. If I was suddenly told I needed to now work from an office, I'd find a new employer ASAP

I wish this was more of a thing in Massachusetts. The traffic is ridiculous here.

I'm a fan of being at the office, both personally and when it comes my colleagues. Wfh is a great possibility, and probably works better in some areas (mine is lab-related). Any meeting is a lot better in person compared to over a call through.

I’ve always balanced projects, side hustles, and a full-time job. My employer once embraced remote work, but later forced everyone back to the office. After five years of exceeding benchmarks, I asked for just 1–2 remote days—and got pushback, even accusations of moonlighting. Now they’re consolidating six roles into 1.5 and asking us to reapply. For me, it was simple: no thanks. Fortunately, my other income streams are flexible and online. I learned long ago to build extra income and invest it, not inflate my lifestyle—allowing me to rotate into disruption and keep options open. The lesson is clear: top performers with choices will always go where flexibility is valued. Retention isn’t about perks—it’s about trust. I’d trade a raise any day for the ability to work remotely 1–2 days a week.
