And that's why I love my company's policy. Basically, we have two days "mandatory" at office (i.e. you're expected to be in, unless you have obligations), and our VP has committed to three days minimum remote and stuck by that. And we're totally cool with people doing full remote for a month or whatever if they are doing an extended trip or have some other reason why coming into the office is impractical.

So all of the mentoring and whatnot happens on those two days. It works quite well because the barrier to collaboration is lower those two days, and people still have the majority of their work remote for better focus and comfort.

We're not a tech company, but I do have a tech job, so I'm very happily surprised that my org is so sensible.
