A lot of people want to work for FAANG. If a current employee resigns because of WFH policies, those companies can likely find a replacement who is more receptive to returning to the office.
- kybernetikos 5y agoThe pattern I've observed is that younger and more junior people want to work in the office, and older, more senior people with established networks, family life and nice accomodation with a home office are more likely to appreciate working from home. This means that if you lose a lot of people because you start being stricter about working from home, then you'll probably disproportionately lose the senior people who are hard to replace and not lose very many of the young juniors who are easy to replace.
- tazjin 5y agoI'm at a FAANG and for any of these categorisations that I think about I can immediately come up with enough counterexamples (across age, marital status, role, ...) that I don't believe there's any easily pinpointed uniform grouping.
