Same in London. Majority ofcompanies didn't go past 1 day per week and only if "exceptional circumstances" (e.g. a strike/major incident on the railways - meaning you already spent 2-3 trying to get in) and while the managers/directors were working 2-3 days per week from the office (mostly to take a 3h lunch break with their mates and return at 3pm pissed-drunk).
I never chased those contracts because life > work, and London commute is a royal pain in the ass.
> should not end in powerful position
I believe they will JUST because of that reason. They will be forced to adapt, drastically increase the WFH, and staff will unleash their productivity and companies will benefit from that. It may take a while since staff may be a bit undisciplined/disorganized in the beginning but eventually they will be super productive. And bad managers will try to take the glory and set up daily zoom calls just to ascertain dominance to their packs.
