What if the office is actually a workplace perk?

A growing number of professionals worry they’re missing opportunities by staying remote. The smartest employers are responding by making office time more valuable, not more mandatory.

In the past few years, job listings have increasingly touted remote or partially remote work alongside other perks like gym memberships and childcare benefits. The assumption is baked in: employees prefer remote work. It implies that companies that care about employee well-being give them the freedom to work from home.
