It wasn’t a new idea and it wasn’t rage bait. My company internally praised us for increased productivity during the pandemic, and now they’re trying to gaslight us into RTO.
This isn’t about productivity. These companies are lying. This is 100% about real estate investments, tax breaks, and flexing power over their employees’ lives. They were scared by how much employee power grew during the pandemic and they’ll invent whatever bullshit lie they can to sweep that under the rug.
