I just don't think smart companies can afford to force the employees back to the office right now.
It does feel like some kind of worker revolt. Literally everyone I know wants to quit or do something else. Not like we are talking independent variables here either. If you are already thinking about quitting and your co-worker quits obviously the chance you quit goes way up since your job probably just got way shittier.
I say this as someone who just went back to the office 2 days ago and I love it. Happiness to me is not sitting at home all day with as little interaction as possible.
I think companies are just going to have to play ball with this in the near term as I don't know how they can afford not to.
- themolecularman 5y agoWhat do you think the long term impact will be? The company I work for may have adapted to remote work by noticing they didn't need the Bay Area talent pool. In the past few weeks offices opened in Mexico City and elsewhere for engineering.
