Precisely. People are mimics. Without offices no one knows what to do and how to be successful.
I don't believe all the people who say they are super productive at home because being productive is being a good team member. And remote people aren't good team members. They are absent and aloof and the barrier to interacting with them is higher.
People hate the commute. That's fine. I wish everyone would stop lying that WFH is a pareto improvement. It's not.
- greedo 4y agoSince you're post is light on facts, here's some from my company: In 2020, we had a record year in both revenue and earnings. That's the bottom line. I won't mention all the KPIs that our IT staff hit since KPIs are all bullshit, but we exceed the previous year by a significant margin. During this year, my team grew by 20%, and hasn't had any turnover. In 2021, we had yet another record year in both revenue and earnings. Specifically, earnings were up almost 15%, and we're a financial services business, so we didn't get a boom from commodities etc. As with the previous year, we exceed the goals for our KPIs by a substantial margin. So now in 2022, we're hybrid, though most of my team prefers to work from home. And we're still doing exceedingly well as far as we can be measured, both as a team and a company. So that's hard data. The company, despite being 100% remote in 2020/2021, has never been more profitable. Ever. Maybe your team is full of losers who are absent, aloof, and difficult to interact with. Or perhaps it's something else...
