    No conflict of interest here folks.

    Not like there’s murmurs about a commercial real estate crash looming due to remote work being super effective and there being no reason what so ever for CEOs to have these gigantic castles with thousands of serfs.

      So glad my company downsized offices this last year. We’re like 80-90% remote (I still haven’t even been to the state my office is in), so there was no reason to keep a big office building that was mostly empty.

      It’s amazing what a company can do when they care about their employees more than a stack of bricks with shit in them.

        I wouldn’t go as far as to say they care about employees, there are plenty economical reasons to do so, the fact it gels with happy employees is pure happenstance…

        The difference is when the drive to maximize money is greater than the need to lord over people.

        That is, unless the company owns the real estate and buildings themselves, then the fear the value of the property will tank is another overriding factor that sets them against WFH.
