I get that some kinds of work benefits from an in-office experience. Day to day interactions with other folks can generate ideas and serendipitous actions can ultimately benefit the business. In WFH situation, you have to set up meetings to do that, when an in-office environment means you can casually talk to someone at the water cooler.

The water cooler meeting doesn’t disappear when you WFH. The company I started with in August spans 80+ countries and 16 time zones. Most of us techies are 100% WFH. The company uses Teams for internal comms and I can initiate a “water cooler” meeting with anyone in the company as long as they are online.
