Bonnie Dilber 3rd Recruiting Leader Zapier – I’m not currently recruiting for any roles but c… 2d G Follow Y’all. I just looked it up and Google had 9.5 billion budgeted for renting offices and data centers in 2022. Assuming 250kemployee for each of the 12k who were laid off? That’s 3 billion. Triple it. Let’s say those laid off employees cost 750k each (they didn’t). That’s still less than the cost of rent. I mean couldn’t you just get rid of your offices, let your employees work remote, and save lots of money (and jobs)? And wouldn’t fewer big companies paying big rents in these tech hubs drive down cost of living in those areas and lead to more affordable housing? And wouldn’t you be able to diversify your workforce significantly through going 100 remote? I dunno, I just kinda feel like remote work solves all sorts of problems.
