The elephant in the room to me is that companies talked a ton about creating spaces that are conducive to great work. The design and architecture of an office matters. Not all have it right, but for those who do, it goes a long way. See Pixar as an example. But all of a sudden everyones acting as if none of that matters, all because we get to skip a commute and sit in our pyjamas?
