I suspect you're correct more broadly, but this article is talking about software jobs:

>The economists — Natalia Emanuel, Emma Harrington and Amanda Pallais — studied engineers at a large technology company. They found that remote work enhanced the productivity of senior engineers, but it also reduced the amount of feedback that junior engineers received (in the form of comments on their code), and some of the junior engineers were more likely to quit the firm.

However, there are major problems with the research. From the research article:

>Our data include peer code reviews of software engineers at a Fortune 500 firm be- tween August 2019 and December 2020.

The study period includes the throes of the pandemic and ignores long-term adjustments.
