    I have to assume somebody’s done a cost analysis on rto and determined that keeping their boots on our necks is more profitable in the long run than employees being happier and more productive.

      I don’t get why you assume there’s a cost analysis that could be accurate over the reported productivity increases of working remotely.

      It’s likely the obvious, a change that isn’t good but it’s done anyway because people in a company often do not do what’s good for the company, they chase what’s good for them personally.
