Meanwhile, everyone is the Fortune 101+ is raking in the talent by allowing remote work. Every job I’ve seen that is remote has had 400+ applicants on LI whereas on-site is lucky to get 20-30.
Companies offering remote are swimming in talent options.
Better talent that’s cheaper too.
The workers should ensure they don’t remain on the fortune 100 list. :3c
Fuck that's depressing.
For the life of me I can’t see the benefit to return to office. I don’t know why they push it so hard.
Because their other CEOs who don’t understand how people can work remotely are doing it and they want to fit in by forcing their employees to do the same.
Proof that remote work makes for better and more effective employees means nothing, they just want control. Same reason they force people to follow specific office hours and mandate overtime that just drags out work that could be done in four days if they have flexible schedules.
City governments have been pushing hard because they're worried about their tax base and economies - not so much for the office space itself (though that's in danger), but the ancillary businesses like coffee shops, lunch places, and car parks. It's a shitty reason, as they could take the opportunity to rearchitect office space into livable housing and solve the problem that way - but they don't want to.
