I work for a remote first company for years, and they are now doing the same thing, and I hate not having an office so I can sit and code alone with proper infrastructure in a quiet manner. The company is basically offloading the office costs to employees. I'd appreciate if they give me a 20k stipend to invest on an Air conditioner unit for my house. The heat this year is being brutal in the Bay Area.

I relented and got a portable unit for around $500. It's loud and nowhere as nice as an in-unit, but it's definitely been worth it IMO.
