> Productivity tanked further when they tried to grow rapidly during COVID Anecdotally, the productivity went up during covid because the boundaries of WLB were shattered. But after 2 years, I think a lot of people are feeling burnt out. The companies may feel like they are just trimming the fat, but fat has an essential function in the body. With less people, no doubt, the people who are left will initially work harder, but they will soon succumb to burn out and have a loss of productivity. Working harder after already working hard for two years can do that to you. The company’s best performers at low productivity will do more harm to the companies than having their low/average performers have low productivity.
