Quite a read.
I don't think you need a random person on the internet telling you this, but you made the right choice.
Work from home jobs are starting to pop up everywhere. While some of these companies can try to close Pandora's box, this tech is only going to grow.
Companies that can adapt will find themselves with a grateful workforce. Those that don't will find themselves with empty office spaces.
WFH embracing companies will also find they can get the best candidates for the job. No more getting a mediocre employee who barely fits the role because the talent pool is local.
I'm pretty sure the companies battling this have leadership that's either stuck in IBM 1985s world of ass in chair micromanage or the company owns it's building or is stuck in a contract or owns real estate around the company.
There is basically zero reason to not have the employees that can work from home, do so.
