Makes sense for new, inexperienced employees to start by working closely with established, experienced employees in a more structured environment. Meta’s findings in this regard seems reasonable.

The trouble with these company-wide decisions, at least as they are being reported, is that it assumes that one size fits all.

Do some people function more efficiently in the office than remotely? Of course they do.

Do some people work better from home? Yes. Clearly.

The real problem is managing this. Dunning-Kruger tells us that the worst people at doing something tend to be the least self-critical, and persuading some dufus that he really needs to come into the office whereas the star performer in the next cube can stay at home and still out-perform him by a wide margin is a really difficult discussion to have.

So top managers treat everybody the same, and the ones who end up suffering are the ones who didn't need the adjustment in the first place.

You have to treat everybody the same if the job description is the same or it creates huge problems within the workforce.
