WhY cAnT wE rETAiN oUr TaLeNt!?!- greedy CEOs in the future
Future? It’s happening now
Yeah. Just read an article explaining that you lose the best talent by forcing RTO and turnover jumps 14%.
The real talent already built the good stuff. Now, all they need is someone to follow SOP’s to maintain and carry on. Improvements and new stuff will take the hit, and they will grow stagnant until someone else starts doing something better, and then they scramble and complain as they start losing money and that’s when they start looking for talent again. Except this time, they will just be hired to put in place whatever the other company did and probably be let go after.
AT&T hasn’t updated toll free routing control in almost 11 years. Their bvoip portal is similarly antiquated. What good stuff have they been developing?
Warner Brothers!
. . . wait
Retain who? Anyone not in a brick and mortar, or in HQ, is over seas.
The slow march of the return to office has taken another step forward
No. 🤬 you ‘Fortune’. You’re just spoon feeding the rich what you think they want to hear.
Amazon and ATT are big but they don’t represent the whole and does not imply return to office is inevitable.
Where im at, there is literally only two companies in town. Comcast and ATT. No other options. So yeah, I have a choice but not really. They get my money no matter what. Wish we didnt have a duopoly…

AT&T owns a lot of corporate real estate. Its fucking with their books so they have to punish everyone so execs look smart.

Property holdings will always be more important to corporate America than the people that they employ.
I’m happy my greedy company closed our office a year ago to save money on the lease. I don’t respect the people in charge but full time WFH is an excellent perk.

And proper labor laws. This seems like a no brainer for your environmental goals and reduces congestion, and frees up real estate for re development to Appartments.
My work started demanding the same. I can’t do more than 2 days, because my wife works 3 days and we’ve got to do something with the kids. Two days is what I’ve been doing since I started working there 3 years ago. Luckily they won’t be enforcing it for now. I’m bound to them until summer at least. That’s when I plan on finishing my bachelor that they paid for. I love my job, but this (and the bad pay) is forcing me to start looking for something else ASAP.

Can anyone explain to me why companies are pushing RTO? Simply to justify some management positions? Or justify the big buildings they built? To me work from home would have so many advantages for a company and could actually be problematic for some employees. Not only can they save some costs on office space but it opens up their talent pool in a way that could lower wages. They could find someone living in low cost of living middle of nowhere that would do a job for 60k that someone in an expensive city couldn’t justify doing for less than 120k.
traditional middle management simply doesnt need to exist of you’re not baby sitting in person. everything else they can do could be AI handled or outsourced. except maybe training up and assessing for promotions. get used to training yourselves and self promotions by job hopping.

Justifications to lose employees.
Not like China just totally owned you, right? Yeah, let go of your top talent. Good idea.
