Early in the pandemic, our CEO asked why we paid so much for real estate if everyone could work from home. They’ve been trimming leases as quickly as they can.
We’ve been hiring people who live out of state. They only come onsite very rarely, maybe only once a year.

My company did that too, then they replaced us with cheaper labor from overseas.

Ours did that before the pandemic and not my area. Within a year, it went back to what it was because of how terrible the quality was. Now they are dumping all the buildings that aren’t needed and sent a lot of us home. Of course, the main product that my job deals with needs buildings for machines to work so they didn’t get rid of everything. No more corporate, and for now, we are all home for the foreseeable future. I also wonder when they will get the bright idea to start outsourcing again now that it’s been like 7 years…
