Remote work is harder to come by as companies push for return to office
Three and a half years after the start of the pandemic, employers are getting serious about increasing the amount of time workers spend in the office and trying new strategies to overcome resistance.

I’m surprised share holders of a lot of big companies aren’t demanding WFH. Office space is one of the larger chunks of overhead for a company (not just the space but utilities, supplies, maintenance/cleaning).
My guess is as leases are coming to an end that companies will definitely think twice before signing when WFH is an option.
My current job has us in the office a few days every 6-8 weeks and if it went to anymore than that the majority of the team I’m on would quit. It’s pretty easy to find work right now with unemployment below 4%
