I'm thrilled to have a reason to shun society. There are things I miss, but that's location not covid. I wasn't getting my regen time/place anyway, haven't for a very long time. Being around people drains my energy

I feel like the whole tech industry the last year is all “wow we should just work from home all the time after the pandemic, I’m so much more productive!” But I hate the lack of interaction. I feel like I never got to properly meet my new coworkers, and communicating with our voice chat is awful because there’s lag, so sometimes you pause for the person to speak and by the time they start + the lag, you think they have nothing to say, and then you speak over them, etc. I personally miss growing closer with my team because it helps me build solid collaborative relationships with them. I haven’t had that all year at my new job. I realize I’m basically an outlier but still. It sounds like we’ll be doing 2 office days, 3 optional WFH days once things are back to normal but personally I’d prefer the opposite. Maybe I’m more extroverted than I thought.

Check my most recent post.
But honestly, software engineering work is a whole lot different from being a pilot. Maybe half of engineers will want to keep only working from home but I doubt the other half will, at least not full time. I can’t be the only one who feels this way.

It’s been awful as a new employee for all the reasons you mentioned and more.

I just found my department colleagues not very friendly, they weren't keen to build a relationship, however, teams outside of my department were great and they are the ones who have expressed the greatest surprise that I'm leaving and have been very nice with their words. I've had the complete opposite from my department colleagues, not a single call or email since they heard I was leaving.. Fucking weirdos..
