After four years of watching remote work in action, researchers uncovered a surprising shift in how people feel about their jobs. The results challenge many common beliefs about working from home.
One of the top tech companies in my country mandated a return to office because the boss couldn’t stand that people were working from Bali instead of chatting with him at the office coffee machines in the cold Estonian winter.
Friend who works there says it’s up to the team leads and few want to enforce it and risk losing people. But the CEO got his article in the newspapers saying software engineers are all lazy entitled pieces of shit, which was his real goal. He hates paying people, but the company only gets top talent because of their salaries. Nobody goes there for “innovation” anymore now that it’s an established company.
