Ok so for the pros of working from home that's:
But let's not forget the big cons of work from home too!
There are pros for working in the office. They don't outweigh the cons, but let's not pretend there are 0 benefits.
I could see a day-a-week thing being positive, but why the hell would we pay for the real estate? Just can't see it working out for a net positive.
Maybe shared office space that's network/security agnostic? We had a thing going like that in Seattle for a bit. Not sure how it worked on the ground, wasn't there.
There are coworking spaces that facilitate this quite well and they could absolutely be scaled up for mid to large organizations.
I do 3 days a week in the office, 2 from home which works pretty well for me. I do enjoy going to the office because it gives me an excuse to leave my miserable apartment. They also have snacks and such, and it's easier to plan with colleagues over coffee than setting up a virtual meeting.
But then I still get the benefits of wfh two days a week
Another con to add to your last paragraph. Acting skills will dip, dashing the hopes of some Apple employees that wanted a part to the snuff film.. Rust 2.
