[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The RTO has nothing to do with increasing productivity. There are PLENTY of people that slack off more in the office than those that work from home (long lunch/bathroom breaks, chatting with colleagues, pretending to work while surfing the web, etc.). You have the same issues in office like at home.

They want butts in seats because it stimulates the economy. You use your car, gas, lunches, drycleaning etc. You get in an accident, insurance goes up, body shops get more work, car rentals get kick-back, it's all daisy chained. If you stay at home, a huge portion of potential capital is out of circulation.

If you can't properly manage people at home, you won't do it better if those same people are in the office. Inefficient and poor performers will do so regardless where they work from.   [/quote]

It’s not just about managing poor performers. It’s information sharing, oversight, and norms (time management and appropriateness). It’s very hard to share norms when you are not in person. Many young or less experienced employees are also less likely to ask for help when remote.

The biggest companies in the world aren’t RTOing because they want to help Goldman Sachs’ commercial real estate portfolio. It’s genuinely bad for development and there are real oversight risks that shouldn’t be understated. [/quote]
