Surprising no one but the mgmt teams…

Unispace found that nearly half (42%) of companies with return-to-office mandates witnessed a higher level of employee attrition than they had anticipated. And almost a third (29%) of companies enforcing office returns are struggling with recruitment. In other words, employers knew the mandates would cause some attrition, but they weren’t ready for the serious problems that would result.

Meanwhile, a staggering 76% of employees stand ready to jump ship if their companies decide to pull the plug on flexible work schedules, according to the Greenhouse report. Moreover, employees from historically underrepresented groups are 22% more likely to consider other options if flexibility comes to an end.

In the SHED survey, the gravity of this situation becomes more evident. The survey equates the displeasure of shifting from a flexible work model to a traditional one to that of experiencing a 2% to 3% pay cut.

Meanwhile, since we like money more than control, my company is letting the office lease expire & finding a smaller, cheaper place for our equipment.

It's awesome being at a permanent remote startup that's hiring right now, we get the cream of the crop that is leaving those other companies right now.

At that point, the company called me to help as a hybrid work expert who the New York Times has called “the office whisperer.

Eh - what is this

I work at a pretty large HQ and they don't enforce anything either way. In fact, they said we just work from certain states for tax reasons, but beyond that, there's nothing else. I come in once a week for a change of pace, but prefer the battlestation at home. I have a better setup, less distraction, and tend to work longer hours.

Bringing me back in would not make things better in any way, but I almost feel bad for them having a large building that sits empty so much.
