2-3 days is reasonable tbh. I've personally enjoyed the connection to my colleagues. I can't get that WFH 100%

Almost no companies that allow work from home are forcing you to work from home. You have always been free to come in those 2-3 days whenever you want, no?

That doesn't follow. Clearly it should be whatever works best for each individual, with some coordination to try to be in on the same days.

It's reasonable if they already have an office where you live, and the office comes with perks (e.g. good food, gym) that save you the time you spent commuting there.

Relocating without even having a fixed contract from day 1, just to be able to go to the office, is a bet many (talented) people won't be willing to take these days.

Sad that you've been downvoted, it's a perfectly OK opinion to have.

It's downvoted because the rationale doesn't make sense logically, and also it implies that forcing people to do things that don't work for them is OK. It's not downvoted because the parent gets a benefit personally from being in an office.
