Another company that doesn't want to waste shitloads of money on an office and force employees to suffer due to poor choices.

Or you can quit so they don't need to pay severance.

Is this just the new norm for companies?

Looks like it. It's something you need to negotiate during your job interview otherwise you're fucked. Every company I looked at during my last round of job search was going for that bullshit 3 days at work 2 at home thing. Infuriating. Meanwhile, having our team leader be in an office on the other side of France and remotely manage several dozen people in a different site is apparently totally fine and not the same at all.
