Why do they care? I don't have a commute, so I now work longer hours. I assume they are using spyware to track my hours spent anyways. Isn't this mutually beneficial for the employer and employee? I work more hours and they spend less on office rent and perks.
- LapsangGuzzler 3y ago> Isn't this mutually beneficial for the employer and employee? Employers don’t want mutually beneficial, they want control. Working from home gives people the ability to work while handling other priorities as well. I’m sure the employer time tracking plays a role, but they’ve always had the ability to do that, the pandemic didn’t create that. I think it’s because companies love to push their corporate propaganda in person, upper level management loves to feel that they’re making a meaningful impact on team morale, but it just sucks when done over zoom.
- lafar6503 3y agoI don't know where you take such knowledge from, is there any scientific paper on psychology and social behavior of employer class? I think most people are reasonable and rational in their expectations, and the unfortunate employers who have to deal with tech/it workers have to develop extraordinary patience and self-restraint in order to have anyone doing any work at all.
