WFH is worse. Juniors don’t get the mentoring they need. Collaboration is a fraction of in person. People become siloed. Knowledge is not shared. Knowing when roadblocks occur becomes more difficult. Productivity drops.

Sounds like you’ve worked at terrible companies with terrible people. Instead of finding a good company. Then again I haven’t worked at a company with more than 30 employees and so I get paid well and have access to walk 5 meters to talk to the CEO/Owner.

Right. Again, even if this is your opinion, you should be pro WFH in general because it makes your life better as someone who works in an office.

But you're not, because you're attempting to appeal to what you think people more successful than you (business owners) want. As opposed to what objectively would be best for you. That's pathetic and self-destructive.

If it makes you feel better, most Americans are self-destructive and don't know how to stop. But if you don't advocate for yourself, you should be aware that certainly nobody else is.

I've worked at good companies, and bad companies. The reality is neither care about my well-being because only I, and my family, care about my well-being. You have to understand if you drop dead right now the world will continue without you. The company will not cease operations for even an hour.

Therefore, you must constantly make an effort to live the best life you can, while you can. Purposefully harming yourself with the intention of creating a better perception doesn't help you, especially when that perception is worthless.
