It's worse because you have more management overhead all the way to the chain, more HR and support needs, and more office space required. A rule of thumb is a worker's full cost is 2x their salary in the US. This varies, but it makes the math easy. So costs would increase about double that. But if your workers are doing creative work, they might be more productive now per hour and that might offset the costs.
