        Tradition.
Belief that work-from-home is less efficient.

Remote didn't work as well for the company.
Remote didn't work as well for any number of people at that company.

We have work from home, i have gone to the office twice this year. But it is true it didn't work for everyone. Some left because of isolation factor, some fired because without anyone watching they just could not self motivate. In some case in-office meetings are way more productive, and you get those moments when a coworker overhears your convo and chimes in with something relevent that you would never have connection on in WFH

While there are a few that work better in an office, the overwhelming majority work better at home. Why should we force everyone to suffer for the handful of folks who can't self-motivate at home? We don't bend over backwards to cater to people who say, have auditory issues that make working in a crowded open-plan office debilitating. We tell those folks to go die in a fire if they can't handle an office environment. Plenty of people can't work in an office, but that was never been seen as an argument to get rid of offices.
