Apple did this. Initial recruiter said remote. Thankfully before interviews the hiring manager said not remote, I had done a challenge already though.

Facebook did this. Recruiter said remote. Changed their mind that the rotational position would need to be in person.

I'm very up front about being remote. I live in LA. A lot of companies don't have offices here. I have a nice life, property. I'm not a 24 year old who will upend their life for a job anymore. I like working from home. I like hanging out with my dog. I've lived in both Seattle and SF. I loathe SF and find Seattle incredibly depressing. I guess I've made it if I can say no to such opportunities.
