A lot of times, when people discuss the phenomenon of employers ending work-from-home and try to make their employees come back to the office, people say that the motivation is to raise real estate prices.
I don’t follow the logic at all. How would doing this benefit an employer in any way?
You mean to tell us that the same CEOs’ reports that mention productivity has gone up after going remote was a lie? Record breaking profits after going remote is a lie?
Why are the CEOs lying? Two of the explanations are that the profit margin is 15% and the city is threatening to end the 15% tax break or the company owns real estate and the lost of asset value is greater than productivity increases that come from going remote.
Why the fuck would you think that’s what he’s trying to say?
What is he trying to say then? What the commentator mentioned and what the CEOs(including my own employer) were saying from 2020-2022 are at odds with each other. So someone is incorrect. Which one is it?
