First: It's a power issue. Employment is at will so ceos feel they have more power (or at least leverage) and can say they're firing ypu for a reason. Leases have the power with the landlords so ceos feel they need to be more circumpect.
Second: it's a positioning issue. Ceos are usually thinking about their next gig. Layoffs because we overhired: agressive, good ceoing. Too much real estate: bad ceoing, doesn't look great on the next job search.

- steveBK123 3y agoAbsolutely a power issue. My current employer has been reasonably lenient on RTO, however.. They periodically keep asking people to come in more while actually not even having enough desks in 2 of our major offices. The desk shortage is bad enough you have to beg for consultant desks and every couple months we get a mass mail ordering everyone to stay home next week to accommodate some visitors. So on the face of it, would seem that our company is at full utilization of office space given COVID era remote hiring & hoteling, and yet they still want to nag. They really just want employees in "how high sir?" mode, with tears in our eyes.
