It’s not just an extravert/introvert thing. Some people will say whatever they want their bosses to think about them rather than speak their own mind because they think it will be better for their job if they do. So if they think their bosses want to end WFH, they will agree even if they don’t want to come back to the office because they think they could be on the chopping block if they don’t.
I rarely give my bosses my opinions unless I realize they are directly asking me because I know it won’t actually make a difference except that it will look like I’m rocking the boat. It’s not because I’m introverted, it’s because I’m pragmatic.

Same. I never voice my opinion anymore because it doesn’t seem to matter.
