Well obviously the commute should be within a reasonable distance, I wouldn't spend 5 hours a day in a car or train for it. But let's say the total time spend back and forth is about 1,5 - 2 hours total. I feel that's worth the time spend for a hypothetical double salary.

Obligatory presence in the office is indeed a red flag if it doesn't actually provide a benefit to the role. To clarify, I'm 100% WFH in Denmark so I'm not advocating to push people into an office building but there's definitely a point where nearly everyone would go into the office full-time, if salary and benefits are high enough.

50K isn't worth 10+ hours extra hours per week going solely toward work.
