The romanticised ideal of remote work actively harms young jobseekers, creating an insurmountable barrier to entry.
FO Take · Score 10
Remote work champions espouse flexibility, yet it entrenches exclusion. Graduates are being priced out of opportunity, denied crucial in-person mentorship and the serendipity of office life. This isn't progress; it is professional purgatory for the next generation. We are sacrificing their careers on the altar of convenience. When will we admit the emperor has no clothes?
The strongest counter
Remote work offers unparalleled access for diverse talent, regardless of geography or personal circumstance. The focus should be on *how* to onboard and mentor effectively, not on forcing a return to outdated office mandates.
