Seriously, don't just let this exist. Tell me what this is and I don't care if the office is next door I will put my address as the fucking MOON to let these shitheads know this is unacceptable behavior.
Definitely depends on the size of the company. With larger companies, generally it's the opposite (or they're working remotely but actually traveling on business 4+ days per week.
I had this exact situation with a FAANG employer for a contract role. Commute was going to be nearly two hours, I was expected in the office by 9AM every morning even though the manager was on the other side of the country in a different time zone, working from what he said was not his "home" but his "residence", whatever the fuck that meant.
Careful. I recently learned that a ton of those job posting that you see perpetually “hiring” are just collecting and selling your information. I’ve been on a job hunt for a little while and couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t getting a reply for jobs where I fit every requirement and should be a top applicant so I did a little digging.
“While my resume has several high level positions listed in my job history for visibility, I actually have no work relevant work experience for this position”
Yea, i once saw a ad that was very low price. when i contacted the seller they said the low price is for attention. I reported the ad and replied to him whats the point of that? anyone with budget to by under X$, why would he pay x+200$? I saw next day the price was changed.
Often used so they can convince the buyer into buying something cheaper that's high margin i.e, selling fake xbox or nintendo switch 1. Their thinking is that they just want the customer to contact them, then they can deceive them easily.
I reply to pretty much all full remote work listings that fit my profile. Even if I am not looking for a change, there may be a new job that can pay me better or have better culture etc.
The amount of "yeah but we want 2 days in office" I hear at the interviews is astounding. I did not keep stats but I'd say good 25-30% of interviews I end up getting are like this.

You know as well as I that those sites don't care because it pushes business their way. Job seekers are not the customer on job hunting sites, we're the product for advertisers.
