I'm still remote. The company forced everyone to go back 3 days a week, but it was too big of a pain for me with child care being an issue (3 year old and 5 year old). So I applied for permanent WFH and they are sitting on my application. The CTO told me that the heads of the company are not giving permanent WFH for anyone without a medical reason. He did say that he would extend my return to office date until next year, though, so at least by then my 3 year-old will be in preschool.
All in all I'm considering leaving for a permanent WFH position. The work-life balance is just way better when you have small kids.
I wish I had had that option when my kids were little. Hope you find something you enjoy.
