Sounds like a lot of cultural issues. My pre-covid job was a very small company but similar stuff.
We hired an in-town workforce and cut the old guard out completely. Worked in person everyday until lockdown but had flexibility as well.
We were all pretty close (10ish people including execs) so remote work was fine and we shut down the office… I’m a much bigger remote work fan now because of how well it went.
The people on the same page will be on the same page whether they’re waking through the park or not. It may be time for the others to move along.
