unless you have applied to go full remote. but don't let facts get in the way of a good ideological flame war.

They’ve also declined over 10% of the applications to go full remote. So, just because you apply doesn’t mean you will get it

My employer, Notion Labs Inc, has open offices in San Francisco, New York, Dublin, Hyderabad and Tokyo, and plans to do Monday/Thursday in-person starting in a few months. We make a notes/wiki/tasks/organizer product that competes with Quip/Dropbox Paper/Trello/Airtable. Our engineering team culture is thoughtful, introspective, and a little bit scrappy. We’re tackling interesting challenges in these domains: a very write-heavy workload, a thick client React web app, interesting data modeling for collaborative editing. I find the work rewarding because we’re building something tons of people use every day.

I disagree. I find mentoring weaker team members much easier over remote. They are not crammed into my cube trying to take notes, we can cut and paste back and forth, we can talk without disturbing the rest of the office.

I don't see the issues people keep insinuating.

Generally no, for example a Japan sales focused position needs to be filled in Tokyo. But there may be some latitude for some kinds of positions depending on requirements and the hiring manager.

HR departments trying to get people back in the office..

Why would HR care?

Companies that own lots of commercial real estate in down town areas trying to get people back in the office, sure.
