The problem is, they don't even let most people have actual offices at the office.

Even if productivity is better this way, isn't there an advantage to being able to hire people from a wider geography, access to a larger talent pool?

I read @paulg and other leadership type YC people support return to office as well. I recall startups competing for talent desperately. That was why silicon valley startups always had crazy perks. If talent was how my business disrupted and dominated, I would want the most access to talent and give them the best working conditions. Perhaps a subtle pivot in priority has happened? Tech companies no longer believe in a talent-centered strategy? Or there is an over abundance of talent?

I'm just trying to give people the benefit of doubt, that this isn't just cruel people unhappy at the sight of improved quality of life for others.

- We need save climate! Less pollution! - Can I work from home? - That's not what I meant!

Probably the worst company I've interviewed for. Yet another reason to stay away

Another company I’ll never want to work for then.
