Companies likely lose money with more workers in the office. More electricity, more water, more supplies. More unhappy employees, more tired employees, more good employees looking elsewhere for WFH jobs.
Probably sunk cost fallacy with the lease. Building is paid for, why not use it and also be better able to micromanage your drones?
I see so many light thinkers arguing that this is all about real estate. Jesus fuck.
Enlighten us then, keeper of secret wisdom.
Fucking look up “sunk cost fallacy”.
Yup. I’m content with my usage. You want to elaborate and contribute or keep vagueposting?
It’s also to do with the fact that most research looks at company profit. But if you follow the paper trails, most of the high level managers that insist on return to office are investors on commercial real state ventures and/or funds that invest in these downtowns and office spaces. It’s bad for the company, but it’s good for their personal wallets. The authoritarian high is a plus.
But management makes all the decisions and having everyone physically accessible to their need for control makes them feel better.
