I think the negatives apply to new/inexperienced workers and it's unfortunate that it wasn't addressed in the article, but this affects the smaller population of the entire workforce and will be one of those things that will be improved on over time. I imagine there being new processes to get new workers on-boarded and adjusted to remote work and that could be having them temporarily in the office.
I also started my career in a cubicle farm with a lot of other software engineers which was great for my growth, but I think that could be replaced with adjustments to the process of ramping up juniors. Perhaps colleges or training programs will incorporate training to deal with the lack of seniors or assign juniors with seniors to work together in a mentorship with guidelines.

I'm not as optimistic. that class of 2020-2022 (high school and college) got socially stunted in a way that I feel will only break the physical divide further. Those kids in 20 years won't even see it as a problem that they never got a proper prom, a chance to walk the stage, a chance to properly onboard into their first step of their career and form connections that will help them grow. It'll just be a new normal, a colder normal facilitated by the false platitudes that is modern social media. The only possibly good long term (20+ year) ramifications will be that a lot of old crusty government processes will definitely be streamlined through the net. Having platforms livestream electorial forums to a populace who treat the internet as a natural extension of their bodies will completely change the dynamics of how candidates argue and pander.
