Return to office – how is it going?

My company consolidated buildings during Covid and my role is a hybrid role. I’ve gone into the office a few times, but spent the whole day on virtual meetings. I no longer have an assigned office or desk and I don’t know where people may be sitting on a given day so the idea of face to face, spontaneous water cooler conversations is a total joke. I work longer days when I work from home. Management is unwilling to set expectations about what days we should come in, so it’s a cluster. Management hasn’t defined core hours either, so that doesn’t help. Curious to see how it’s going for others.
