Meta updates RTO policy with stricter mandate, saying workers may lose their jobs if they don't show up 3 days a week
(www.businessinsider.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The company I work for is still fully committed to remote first. They have closed multiple office locations including the entire headquarters campus. They can’t stop gushing about how much money they’re saving.
Thing is though that often, real estate deals are made over long periods of time. I think a lot of RTO stuff is happening because companies can’t just get out of their leases. They spent years and millions of dollars actually building offices and by god they want to see them get used.
Yeah, there's definitely a big sunk cost thing going on too
Whether people are remotely working or in the office, it's still the same cost. As soon as they sell it off, it's not a cost any more. Justification doesn't make the cost less.
