For some reason, I have in my mind September when we're going to see a lot more RTO of at least 3 days a week.
Also in my mind, companies that are either smaller or have a good idea of what they need their people to do are the ones that are going to be able to thrive and provide full-remote work.
BigCo's are probably going to continue to push for in-person as they are unable to determine what they need from their people so they will substitute face time and meetings to make themselves feel like progress is made.
Random thought: for me, hybrid work as a mostly-remote person was hardest when you had more than one person in a meeting room and the rest were remote.
- dleslie 4y agoBigCos need to justify the expenditure of maintaining an office, and the office culture that goes with it: all those over staffed meetings, the HR and management roles that exist primarily to facilitate in-office culture, the facilities staff and so forth. A non trivial amount of BigCo roles and expenses are simply unnecessary when the physical office no longer exists. And all those people in those roles will advocate strongly for in office work in order to defend their jobs.
- TimTheTinker 4y agoI think there's a lot of sunk cost fallacy going on with BigCos that spent a lot of money on building their own office buildings.
