[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I go in every day anyway, but I'm very concerned a few of my best employees will leave if they try to enforce 4-5 days in the office.[/quote]

I can go in but my mentee, She'll definitely quit.  She does the work of 2.5 people, writes brilliantly. The only reason we have her is the work/life balance so she was able to balance the job and having young twins.[/quote]

We are also going to likely lose some high performers. [/quote]

Yup.  Us too.  I have an amazing 30 year old who has a toddler.  She works part time and mostly from home, but she is incredible responsive when there’s an issue, gets work done quickly and well.  I know for a fact she’s turned down other offers that would pay more but that required full time and offered a lot less flexibility.  We’ll lose her quickly if she can’t keep the flexibility she has now.

That’s the problem with these punitive “goal is to get people to quit” initiatives - you lose the good people who will have lots of other options and will keep the dead weight who will drive in to work five days a week but not actually do anything.[/quote]
