What I saw were companies that posted job ads (as in actual online ads) to hide the fact they were losing customers and had no jobs, companies that tested what the applicants would tolerate (RTO) and so on. Also a lot of companies posponed everything 6 months so the new budgets get in. They need the people but they can't afford them.
It's their money, they can ask for whatever they want within the legal employment framework. If they want people in the office it's their choice since they're paying for it.
For some, it's not like they have a choice.
If you want people back in the office, here is an idea: start giving them actual offices, just like back in the day!
Hoteling is just an abomination. You're treating your full time employees like piece workers.

I’m lucky to be remote , but this isn’t going to last.

That aside, it’s a house of cards. Shoes start dropping and no one knows what will happen. No one wants to know. The status quo of RTO is safer

Non-renters need RTO. So do renters.
