I couldn't ever work in an office park. When the startup I worked for was acquired, there was discussion of moving our office to an office park about 30 minutes north or south of the city. More than half of the employees threatened to quit, even though maybe only 25% would have seen a materially longer commute. We like having choice come lunch time and being able to do some shopping before, during, and after work.
- cjensen 11y agoWas the issue that the company was moving to away from SF, or that the company was moving to an Office Park?
- kspaans 11y agoYup, saw the same thing happening at an infosec company in Toronto. Office at University & Adelaide, bought by BigCo AV Vendor, moving out to 404 & Steeles: 20% of workforce quits in the year between the announcement and the actual move (at least I remember it being the move, less so the new owners).
