Many businesses are returning to the office, which is resulting in workers who prefer fully remote or hybrid work to resign from their positions. If they had asked their job to include specifics about the remote/hybrid policies in their work contract, they would be locked into those policies and could not be forced back into the office.
Never take for granted that the terms of your employment will stay the same unless there is a signed contract ensuring it.
My employer had me sign a telework agreement that specified where I would be working from home.
The fine print said that this agreement could be modified or cancelled at any time with no prior warning. Guess who was forced to get a new job after his manager gave him explicit permission to move across the country?

Yikes, but good on you for getting a new job elsewhere!
