Wouldn’t everyone agree they would do something better if they had more data to inform their decisions?
At the very least most people would tick a box saying they would.
At the time if no appropriate data was available, decisions still have to be made based on whatever is available. And a return to the previous status quo isn’t a crazy idea in that scenario.
Yes, most people hate the idea of commuting and trying to focus in an open plan office, but that’s not what the question was about.
This is also done by a company, envoy, that helps companies understand their office data. So it’s a bit of a conflict of interest.
The greenhouse recruiting study was more interesting. Attrition goes up and companies had a harder time filling the newly vacated roles compared to companies that didn’t force a back to the office.
Personally I think the back the office mandates are a way to do voluntary layoffs without making the execs look bad

Work from home as an option is a HUGE boon to the employee so of course offering it weighs heavily upon an employee’s decision to take an offer. I’d give up 10-20% of my salary for 100% wfh, i’d expect more salary for 0% wfh or some other huge benefit like the office being very close to home.
I already turn down jobs because they are located inconveniently in relation to where I live.
