Anecdotally, (and perhaps unsurprisingly) the flip side of this has also proven true: Working somewhere with an open public commitment to work-from-home and hybrid work had has been great for recruiting and retaining desirable talent, particularly in Information Technology roles.
I can back up what you’re saying with what I’ve seen. Had to hire a few people over the last couple years and remote work is a big selling point in the competition for talent.
It also massively expands the pool of potential candidates. Even a large city say NYC is still VASTLY less people then say all of North America or even just the US. You don’t have to pigeon hole yourself to local candidates.
I got 2 offers last year. One was 2 days in the office weekly arbitrarily (so most people would be sitting alone) for no reason and the other was remote except for maybe a couple days a month
