It’s so scary to wfh. Hybrid at least keeps you face to face with folks you work with

Google nbdst OP Jun 23, 2022

Yup

Copium is strong among forced rto folks

It’s not about WFH it’s about business fundamentals

Google nbdst OP Jun 23, 2022

Not necessarily. Many of these companies took the advantage stay at home trend and couldn't keep up with the innovation engine.

Financial Services Company #!manager Jun 23, 2022

Ok HR manager we got it

Google advocating for hybrid via blind post? Must be PeopleOps

Meta GiveMeZuck Jun 23, 2022

Has nothing to do with WFH lmao

What’s your agenda OP?

Google nbdst OP Jun 23, 2022

Just saying the obvious. The stay at home trend is done.

Splunk clzn52 Jun 23, 2022

If there is anything we have learnt in the last 2 years is that nothing is obvious. You think you know something and there is a trend and boom your theory goes out of the window. With respect to layoffs - it’s really due to over valuation, over hiring and strategic mistakes made by the leadership IMHO. Nothing to do with stay at home. Remote has always been there and will never go away.

It’s not that WFH leads to a company’s demise. These were all companies that grew a lot during the pandemic, took in exorbitant funding as well as debt at little to no interest, and then overhired with the assumption that consumer behavior would stay at an all time high past lockdowns.

OP has an agenda. This has nothing to do with WFH. Keep being jealous while you take the train to the office.

Google nbdst OP Jun 23, 2022

Hahaha. I take GBus once a week to work. I go there to pick up free food. Not bananas.

Amazon MmUe43 Jun 23, 2022

Yeah and I enjoy working from my home and not commute to the office like a 🐑 for shitty food 😂
