I work at Apple in the Apple Services Engineering (ASE) organization and am required to go to the office at least three days a week. I don’t see the point, given that the majority of my interactions are with employees located in Cupertino or London. Often, I have to wake up very early or stay in the office after hours to join meetings with people in the London office. As a non-Cupertino Apple employee, I am excluded from crucial decisions and have to learn about them in a distilled manner through—take a guess—more virtual meetings. WTF! Just let me work fully remote so I can consider moving to a low cost of living (LCOL) city with my family.

That would mean extracting more value from your salary, and that might rock the boat of other employees in your salary bracket, so no.
