I disagree completely. I love the word terroir. It's a good metaphor. A good wine comes from a grapes in a specific place, with specific soil conditions, with specific weather conditions that can't be predicted or replicated. Even if you could replicate the controllable variables again, the variables are too great to replicate. Sometimes terroir happens at work, and it requires all these things to come together in a place and time. I was lucky to have that in my career. But with remote work I don't think that will ever happen again and remote work will prohibit that. I love working from home 2 days a week. But I wish we could figure out a 3 days a week in office that makes sense.
