But this means they’ll have less time to reveal the map by climbing to the top of towers.

Another company that doesn't want to waste shitloads of money on an office and force employees to suffer due to poor choices.
Or you can quit so they don't need to pay severance.
Is this just the new norm for companies?
Looks like it. It's something you need to negotiate during your job interview otherwise you're fucked. Every company I looked at during my last round of job search was going for that bullshit 3 days at work 2 at home thing. Infuriating. Meanwhile, having our team leader be in an office on the other side of France and remotely manage several dozen people in a different site is apparently totally fine and not the same at all.
I know this behaviour from big corporations is not exclusive to French companies but my type of work allows me to work from home and I've never seen a company despise WFH so much than my once French employer.
This was before the pandemic and I had the habit of working from home with my previous employer when I was sick. When I changed employer to work for a French hosting company in Montreal, they were adamantly against WFH. Even if sick. They preferred that you missed a day (or two, you know, take your time to recover!1!!) from work, taking "generous" sick days, than letting anyone from the lower ranks WFH. This was a pretty big red flag for me. Anyway their work culture was pretty toxic and I ended up quitting after a few months, but the "no work from home even if sick" policy is the first thing that hit me when I started there.
My current employer allows me to WFH and I've been looking a bit around to see if I could find something else, but they mostly all seem to require some sort of hybrid schedules at the office now, which obviously sucks.
