I think subby's asking how to find these jobs, not ask about the existence of non-start up companies.

Yes, exactly. I know these companies exist, but from looking for the last few days, a lot of them seem to not believe so much in remote work. This makes it challenging for me, as I have a disability (degenerative nerve condition) that makes it physically quite difficult to get into an office. This constraint around remote work is what had me working for startups in the first place

also somebody who's worked remote for the last 5 years partially due to disabilities; there's lots of us out there. like somebody else said, go to the linkedin profiles of the fortune 500 (maybe 1000?) companies and start applying to the ones that filter out only-in-office.

also honestly sometimes even if the profile doesn't explicitly say 100% remote, it can be if they want you bad enough. i got an exemption in my current place that's technically "hybrid only" ... wishing you best of luck.

Boring companies tend to be conservative so would tend to want warm bodies in the office every single day. Perhaps you could benefit from HR needing to provide for people like yourself.
