This exactly. My boss said the quiet part out loud the other day.
The CEO owns the building. He pays for the electrical, water, etc. All of that is wasted when only a handful of people come into the office.
So...he required all of us to be in the office so that his investment works out.
Or he could sell the asset, recoup what value he can from it, and save the utility/service/material expense associated with running a physical office.
It will eventually even out. It takes time for new business to displace old models, but it will eventually work itself out. In business, ‘no cost’ vs ‘some cost’ will always move toward ‘no cost’. In the short term, businesses that hold physical property (at least the ones that don’t need physical office space) are trying to do what they can to minimize the loss of value from falling commercial real estate values. Inflate the value, sell the asset, then let someone else take the loss.
Yeah, but the CEO personally profits from RTO, while the company profits from reducing their office footprint. Easy choice. He's not loyal to the company and neither should @CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com be.
If the company is publically traded, shareholders could sue over that conflict of interest.
