Okay, but that didn't convince me much personally. I think its absolutely in the company's liberty to cover the costs of the things they want to cover - as is the case with all benefits (other than gov mandated ones). They are just perks after all.
- jakebasile 8y agoThat's not at issue. It's of course their right. It's also my right to say it's a mean spirited and heavy handed overreach into employees personal lives.
- AnimalMuppet 8y agoDisagree. I don't think of covering my expenses when traveling as a "perk". I consider it part of the minimum standard of fair dealing. And, for those who don't see a problem with this, do you see a problem if some other company specifically won't reimburse for Mexican restaurants?
- taysic 8y agoI see your point - I think a lot of things today boil down to: a substantial number of people, and in this case science too, has agreed that one action is "good" for the planet. However, not everyone agrees - some people feel that all actions should be seen equally. What I'm trying to say is that many would agree We Work are trying to do something good for the planet here. Another group of people don't see it that way. Me personally - I would say in this instance the company should have liberty to exercise their own preference (incl Mexican restaurants). If it is ridiculous to their employees, they will quit. I believe in this case they have a substantial number of employees who don't mind or understand their reasoning. Either way, I don't find it a human rights violation or anything.
