Why can't companies embrace remote work fully

Every time I hear about someone getting laid off to cut costs, I can’t help but think how many roles could easily be done remotely. It baffles me that some companies cling to outdated office norms when so many of us have proven we can be just as productive from home. It feels like a missed opportunity for both employees and businesses.
