The number of companies that require employees to be in the office full time has actually declined to 42%, from 49% three months ago, Scoop said. Employees at companies with hybrid strategies work an average of 2.5 days a week in the office.

Hybrid jobs don't make sense to me. If it's a job that can be done from home, why are you forcing workers to come back to the office 3 days a week?

Just started a hybrid job and can give one reason: being trained remotely sucks.

Every question has to be a chat/email/call and you don’t get the passive learning of hearing a solution that randomly comes in handy later.

This only gets worse as you move up the org chart and the duties & skills become more nebulous. If your job has "mentoring" rather than "training," then it's really hard to build skills remotely.
