Does anyone work remote in HF?

Currently in ER and am able to work remote. I am finishing up a masters program and would like to bump. I don't honestly care if it is in the office or remote, am generally curious if you guys work remote or if you are in the office?

I am in the office, as is my team. I totally understand the appeal of working remote and also get the arguments for it (more efficient, less BS, lot more flexibility). But, if I look back over the past 10+ years when I first started at my current fund, I will say unequivocally that I learned the most from the impromptu or random conversations that came up because I was in the office in person. Those types of conversations have gotten less relevant for me personally over time, but it's something to consider if you are starting out in the industry.
