    Good, they’ll be left with second rate wage slaves while other companies who trust their employees will be more productive and competitive as a result.

        So many don’t understand just how wildly inefficient bureaucratic hierarchies are; what happens isn’t the most profitable thing, it’s the whim of whoever managed to claw their way highest up.

        Basically, the decisions are the manifestation of the artificial stupidity of brute force.

      That’s why I’m sticking with my company. They even sold about 90% of their buildings and we are never going back to office. They have saved billions, why would they send us back? They make sure to tell us that we will never be sent back to office, unless someone chooses to. There is one office left for those who want to work there.
