I am remote even before COVID. In my 5years of experience, never went to office!
Con
Very difficult to switch now as no company is offering remote work now

I feel hybrid culture is the best though. Sometimes you need to concentrate on some work which doesn't happen at workplace.

Hybrid is the worst - don’t have enough flexibility to plan any holidays
Have to pay rent in a Tier 1 city while not getting the benefits of either

In my opinion, that is a problem with the employer. If the company has a good culture and then planning leaves shouldn't be a problem. That is a big problem though!
Agreeing with the tier 1 issue here and considering cities like Bangalore and Mumbai, it is getting worse day by day.

I was doing WFH, I was bore at home. Now, I am doing WFO, now I am bore at office.

- Productivity plummeted. Can't focus with my kids screaming "Baby Shark" 24/7.
- Main challenge: convincing my spouse I'm actually working and not just scrolling Twitter all day. Still working on that one.
- NO - Bring back water cooler gossip and chai breaks!
In my case, I go to a co-working place 500mtrs from my house. Best of both the worlds—no commute, and no distractions.

When I did it:
1) Productivity was much lower than what it is now. I'd feel lazy, I would want to lie down on bed. WLB was similar to how it is now. But got to spend time with parents which was the big unlock.
2) -
3) Not my cup of tea. But I feel if your company allows it and you want to, sure
TBH i feel much more active and alive stepping out in the world, which I unfortunately stopped doing during remote
