In-office work fosters better collaboration and spontaneous innovation that cannot be replicated remotely. Physical proximity enables quick problem-solving, builds stronger team relationships, and creates company culture. Many breakthrough ideas come from casual hallway conversations and impromptu brainstorming sessions that are lost in remote settings. The lack of face-to-face interaction leads to communication gaps and misunderstandings.
