If the pandemic taught us anything it's that remote work is just as productive as everyone going into the office. Not surprising to hear that a lot of CEOs are finally waking up to this fact.
Great PR from the overlords at Davos. While they're saying this they're designing loopholes to avoid whatever taxes do get approved. We need wealth redistribution but the best they can do is billionaires pretending to care.
Former Googler here. It's worse than this. Google's perf/promo culture ensured that good ideas from the bottom never made it anywhere and created a disincentive for anyone to collaborate across teams. It's not a fun place to work. The pay is good and you get free food and massages and that sort of thing, but it's such a toxic work environment that those things don't make up for it unless you really only care about the money.
