    Big companies pulling employees back to the office isn’t pulling them back to the office. It’s laying off higher wages and making room for lower wages.

    All it does for the industry is lower the barrier for entry. Id take a pay cut to keep working remotely, no problem. 100k jobs at 80k remote means smaller employers can compete.

      US companies have much more “freedoms” to rob their “workers” from benefits. By law we have the following benefits

      • Yearly 20 days payed holidays
      • Payed maternity leave (both parents)
      • Must be payed while sick (call immediately)
      • Can’t be fired during sickness
      • Can’t be fired after sickness

      I could tell a similar story about our healthcare (much cheaper and better)
