This chapter explores the shift towards remote and hybrid work setups, discussing profitability for companies, preferences based on age groups, and varying impacts on economic and social aspects. It delves into the historical trends of remote work, debates benefits of in-person collaboration, and examines the impacts of office mandates on employee sentiment and company performance.
