Office attire. Yes, it’s a funny meme that remote workers never change out of their pajamas. But in reality, not having to keep up with traditional office clothing norms can reduce your annual wardrobe and dry-cleaning spending each year.

Reduced costs for suits, ties, makeup etc.

This is also far more inclusive. It means that people who may not have been able to afford the traditional attires for corporate jobs such as suits, ties, shorts, corporate dresses... now all of a sudden can afford to work for such jobs and don't feel excluded (or judged) once they have the job. This is something that is far too often overlooked.
