Comment on Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” - Workers stayed remote even when told they could no longer be promoted.

  And I’m highlighting that it’s short-termist and self defeating

  Companies like atlassian do what they can to make sure they don’t lose their best talent, what I linked is documented proof of that working.

  Dell are trying to reduce costs by reducing the reasons an employee would want to stay.

  Do you think they’re gonna lose the employees they would choose to?

  No, they’re going to lose their best.

  It’s pissing away productivity for no tangible benefit and doing so in a pretty permanent way—who is going to work for a company with that reputation?

  It’s not just them nailing themselves into a coffin, it’s basically them pointing the nail gun at their face.

    Exactly. Employees are not cookie cutter duplicates. The more productive ones always have more options, even when you treat them all the same. This is worse for the company than firing people randomly.

    Productivity is for companies who want substance.

    We only want continuous stock price increases regardless of how much it rots a company from the inside out.

    That’s for someone else to carry about after I’m gone.
