It really depends on the person. For me, I was already remote before covid. I realized commutes really impacted my performance on the job. When I did work from the office, there were nice snacks and parties and chances to socialize and I do miss that. However, I'm not young anymore and now my life is focused around my family. The benefits of being able to spend more time with my kids at home, and to live further from a big city are worth their weight in gold. If i miss out on a joke or two, or dont go out to thai food with co workers, oh well. I have a lot of friends and social engagements outside of work, the social side of the office isnt necessary.
