I would also like to add that fully remote is fantastic for work life balance, but it comes with its cost as well in that it's very hard to build personal connections. In my industry where you need a very long education and training, and once you start working still many decisions in the work place rely on experience, some regular face to face times with more senior colleagues could be critical for your career growth. People who stayed in the company long enough don't need it; people with a ton of experience don't need it. It's the junior ones that're affected most.
