Are you telling me you don't VPN into the office when you arrive to the office?
Well, I do. But it's because the security layers on the wifi are more strict than on the VPN to such a degree that I can't actually connect to it from my work laptop.
If you can connect to the company vpn from the companies WiFi, they’ve configured their networks wrong.
Our servers are in a data center and not in the office building. We work remote most of the time and are only in office for important meetings and other things where it's just easier to work together when sitting on the same table. If you don't work with confidential data like HR or top management where you have physical things nobody else should see, you don't have a personal desk because there are more people working than workplaces.
So the office is just "another place to work". Wifi and LAN are just for internet, you can't access internal services without VPN. Makes it way easier to manage instead of having to different routes to maintain.
