Even if none allow WFH, they might go somewhere with less of a commute, or to a more trustworthy employer that doesn't backtrack on promises.

People are still acting like the current job environment doesn’t suck. Where are these trustworthy companies currently that aren’t also announcing layoffs or that you can count on not to have layoffs?

Aside from FAANG, there's no evidence this trend is picking up.

In fact, I bet all the people that got laid off recently will be happily hired by remote first companies very quickly.

You mean all of the “remote first” companies that are profitable and not struggling?

So many allow WFH. There's thousands of open software positions in SF alone, and plenty are ok with remote. Some are even ok with me being in the taiwan time zone. I'm managed to stay consistently employed in the Taiwan time zone with SF and NYC based jobs the last 2.5 years.

Curiously, for some candidates, almost every letter of the FAANG, WILL give a full WFH offer, today, and they are willing to put this down with ink on paper.

Source: have a few of those on my desk right now.

In my case, more than likely change industries.
