Remote or hybrid workers, would you rather work a 4 day week on site, or WFH completely for 5 days a week, for the same pay? (lemmy.ca)

I know this will vary a lot, so hypothetically let’s say you currently WFH/work remotely at least 3 days a week. Your commute to work takes an hour max (door to door) each way. If you were given the choice of a 4 day week working onsite, or a 5 day week WFH (or as many days as you’d like) for the same pay, which would you choose?

I'm pretty good on commute time. It was a 5-10 minute drive or a 25-30 minute walk. I've stuck there for years because working for any of their competitors are in the area and I'd have to go straight to an hour each way minimum.
I wouldn't mind going back in part time, if the hybrid office environment itself wasn't so hostile to actually working, with sterile hot desks and everyone having loud overlapping conversations in their respective virtual meetings.
