For sure interesting -- especially because the financials are some of the more prominent ones to first bring back and be pretty strict about it. It seems to be completely circumstantial even within the same company. My overall company has brought people back on the 3/2 plan, but plenty of divisions or departments are doing their own thing as well; I have no mandated return schedule. Go in on my own when I feel like cuz I go crazy at home. But I've heard from higher ups there's a lot of pressure building to make it more strict and possibly even more FT in office.

Also JC vs NYC is interesting -- JC local economy not really as dependent on offices. I'm not one of the people saying NYC is dead, but man midtown is definitely a shell of its former self. So much of Manhattan is based around office culture contributing to economy. Selfish people from LI crying about having to commute again don't really get that. It's a huge issue on a longer timeline. I'm not looking to go back 5 days at all, but I also don't understand the entitlement thought that I should be able to do whatever I want.
