Remote work could also be considered a significant cost cutting measure and one that, given to a startup, could result in a significant advantage. Startups don't hire juniors, so that's where I see this becoming more of a thing. All of those seniors out there that may never have considered remote work, why would they, they're paid great and live comfortably, now have a taste for remote work and are adjusting their spreadsheets to see how soon they could afford retirement etc etc.

Investors have a major say in how the money is spent. All of a sudden, remote is where that exciting startup experience is, where the kids want to go. Sure, fly everybody together once or twice a year, far cheaper than an office.
