Covid is messing it all up. Our culture has suffered a decent bit (efficiency is up though :) ), I'm sure the new hires at my company are in the same boat as you..many of us know each other, so no video is just a whatever thing, but it's definitely something that could be off putting when not having the context of why. I'd say don't look to far into it and wait to judge until pandemic is over..well that is if they ever get people corralled back to offices full time
