I don't understand why corporates are so against the idea of savings millions of dollar in office spaces. More people working remotely mean smaller office required, cut on office supplies and utilities bills. Higher employees moral, motivation, and productivity.
What are so bad about all that? Just because the boss can't spy on their employees and assert their authority ?
The guy next to them in the circle jerk is a commerical real estate Holder and they don't want they dick goin soft
Even this is no longer a valid justification. Activity monitoring software installed on companay provided computing devices used by remote employees has been around for a while and is gaining in popularity. They don't even need physical presence to spy on employees.
So, its even more confusing why corporations are so against the idea of remote work.
Yea that software means a hard pass from me taking a job offer.
It demonstrates a fundamental lack of trust unless they are gonna let me spy on everyone above me on the ladder as well.
Sunk cost fallacy. They have the space, and dammit, they need to use it. This will continue for the next few years when the leases begin to expire.
Definitely true for the company I work for. They own the buildings. Great idea when people can't in an the time. No dealing with lease increases and other landlord BS. Not so great when everyone is WFH and is difficult to sell.
