If the company is not a remote-first company, it's a huge pain in the ass, because the culture is not aligned. It's like you're locked in the storage closet. You will shout to try to get someone's attention, but they often aren't there. Occasionally someone will check on you. Meetings can be garbled and difficult. You're left out of everything; your coworkers have ad-hoc conversations and decide things without you. Even pair programming is difficult. And of course, your coworkers will feel like this is all your fault.
The difficulty of getting impromptu questions answered (you always have to schedule meeting time, so you may waste 30mins for an 8 minute question) will eventually lead to office hours if you want to be productive. And it's always fun when people decide to take meetings while working from a coffee shop.
On the plus side, no need to put on pants. (Except in the coffee shop...)
