    I think in time the most efficient companies will be the ones that don’t spend too much in office buildings and will also be the ones that attract more talent.

    In 10-15 years the remote work debate will be over and we will reap the benefits

      Unfortunately it stopped being a buyer’s market years ago. If these companies don’t succeed, they’ll just shape the laws so that others can’t either.

        Is it? Yeah, real estate investors want people back in the office but how many back to the office success stories are we seeing? It’s generally not working out for the employers pushing it.

        the major banks publicly having major concerns about their portfolio of commercial mortgage backed securities says you’re wrong right now. its too soon to call this one. hundreds of billions are on the line, and so are the work/life balances of a rising generation of workers who don’t believe what the baby boomers did.

        No, he’s not. Have you looked at commercial real estate especially around dedicated business districts in cities such as London, Paris and Frankfurt? Long story short, a lot of businesses (big ones such as HSBC) are moving to city centers and into smaller offices.
