[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - it seems short sighted that they are willing to lose a significant number of high paying (and high producing) managers and executives in order to save money.  My BIL makes a lot of money but he also is one of the highest generating managers for IBM in what he sells.  He routinely makes 100-150% of his quota each quarter and so does his team.

He is going to walk if they force him to go to one of those offices since he lives nowhere near any of those offices and is not willing to relocate his whole family.  He has spoken with his team of 15 and of those 15 approximately 75% said they will leave as well.  Seems sort of ridiculous to me but I guess IBM is willing to take that risk. [/quote]

He can walk but the grass isn't greener on the other side. Majority of companies are now starting down the RTO path. [/quote]

OP - totally agree but my sister (his wife) works for a partner of IBM and they don't have a RTO and she makes WAY more than he does.  He would be recruited quickly because he is VERY good at his job.  My sisters office only has one headquarters in Florida.  All of the sales people are spread out across the country and then travel to see clients when they need to.  Otherwise they work from home. [/quote]

So two high earning spouses, and he has a job lined up with his wife’s company. What is the concern? IBM clearly doesn’t value him so easy decision [/quote]
