For me, it was a matter of how much I liked my coworkers. Technically I had a small office but we all (except HR and group exec) worked from open cubes, had plenty of huddle rooms, and those of us assigned offices left them free for all to use as huddle rooms or group call rooms.

It was just a good atmosphere. Hybrid model. Ping pong an hour a day, which near everyone participated in. And tea time we all took very seriously.

Covid and acquisition, in no particular order, made that office go away. I'm remote now, and have been for years. I would go back there in a heartbeat.

Random rant. But miss that crew. We still meet for a beer once in a while, though I'm no longer working there and a lot of us moved out of state. Virtual happy hour is actually fun when you like the people on there.
