This leaked today from inside webmd, the most bullshit corpo HR video I think I've ever seen.

To break down the obvious ones:

  • Employees who are obviously either drinking wayyy too much company koolaid or who know that their jobs will end if they aren't in this video
  • An extremely out of touch CEO who wants things back the old way without giving any concrete data proving that it's better beyond conjecture
  • A company with "internet" in the name who literally doesn't understand the concept of the internet
  • Threatening and bullying language to force people back in office.
  • and just a nice touch, the office is of course not near mass transit or anything and requires driving in
  • Did anyone notice they were all on green screen, kinda proving that there was no need for them to be in person?

People keep talking about corporate real estate and how companies need ppl in offices or the value would crash. But wouldnt the company stand to benefit in the long run by just biting the bullet on the remainder of their lease, not renew, and go 100% remote? Or at least drastically downsize.

Would that not save millions in overhead, lease payments, etc into the future? Or do they have 30 year lease agreements or something?

They might own the building. They definitely have at least a 10 year lease, that's standard for commercial lease agreements.
