Why is this happening? In fact, remote work is the same thing, only I am at home, not in the office.

Remote is a forced measure. When you can't hire a specialist "here"
Small companies are forced to hire remote employees if they cannot hire them permanently. And the big ones can afford to go to the office. Except rare qualifications.
No, it's not the same thing. Worse contact.
If your work is like this - you were given a task and you do it autonomously for a week - yes, it suits you. But as a rule, this is not the case. Interaction in the process of completing a task is of great importance.
Not to mention the fact that the typical disease of remote workers is to disappear, get in touch according to their mood, respond to messages in a day ...
UPD:
It's all unimportant.
You cannot influence this.

The efficiency of an employee depends on the situation in 98% of cases.
Outside the office - a more relaxed atmosphere (+ laziness, etc.) and, of course, less efficiency.
Thus, the company loses its money, having lost the possibility of OPERATIONAL and CONTINUOUS MONITORING of the employee's efficiency.
And who wants to lose money or look for those 2%? None...

The remote can't be controlled. It is not clear how many projects he has in the works, what kind of workload, what kind of environment. Well, if the task is for 8-16 hours, it can always be taxied. And if the task is 40-100 hours, and the specialist failed? What to do?
Therefore, if a company performs a large amount of work, then the choice will always be in favor of a full-time one. And small tasks, especially if you do not understand the technology or service, can be given to freelance or remote work.
