As a reader of the Financial Times, I haven't seen a bias for or against remote working with its articles.

The FT articles on remote work can be found listed at: https://www.ft.com/search?sort=relevance&q=remote+work

Long-time columnist Simon Kuper's column [1] published on September 21 was in favour of working from home, with the position: "Homeworking is not just a corporate issue, it’s a chance to create a better society." Another article from columnist Sarah O'Connor published in May 2023 [2] argues that "More flexibility has improved work-life balance for many since the pandemic began."

Though the FT has also featured opinions in favour of more in-person office time (such as a podcast [3] featuring an interview of a professor who speaks about the benefits of in-person work), there is no clear bias for or against remote work from the search results.

To sum up the search results: there are opinion articles in favour of remote work, news articles about major companies ending work-from-home with quotes from executives who favour in-person work, and articles that report on the benefits of hybrid working arrangements.

For the FT, I've seen a diversity of opinion, without any clear effort to sway the readership one way or another about the issue.
