"The Office is Dead" says Expensify CEO

Long live WFH! “Recall that we went absolutely all out — we did everything possible to make the office as attractive as we possibly could. Drinks delivered straight to your desk. Gigabit wifi. Call rooms. We took this concept further than any company reasonably could at scale, to leave no stone unturned.” It still didn't work. Can't say I'm surprised. https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/the-city/the-office-is-dead-why-expensify-closed-lavish-sf-lounge/article_db49a58a-7509-11ee-8f98-63027b7e41e4.html

Is this CEO the same guy who sent his personal political opinions to all Expensify account emails?

CEO seems like an alcoholic. Who the fuck wants cocktails delivered to their desk? I also see no mention of a decent free lunch and snacks which is the thing I miss most from my lavish sf office days

i would, r u crazy, just not with the prestige of expensify on my resume. Thats an airbnb or meta level of prestige needed to through cocktail parties with friends at the office

Spineless. Just enforce RTO. Ain’t nothing will get people to come in voluntarily

Are we taking the words of a CEO who is going to file his company's bankruptcy soon seriously? P.S. Check Expensify's stock for the last 5 years. They are inching into penny stock territory.
