Because it's so important that you physically sit here in the office, we're replacing you with people on the other side of the planet.
Bonus points if your company mandates return to office, lays off people after they return to office, and then builds a nice new office overseas in a completely opposite timezone to fill with replacements. Then make the people there physically sit in that brand new office... and make them report to the people here.
The job? Data entry.
I just.. I don't... Why...
Something something a lot of people falling for talking points put forward by people invested in commercial real estate because if companies start going fully remote the value of commercial real estate will collapse. Combine that with a mix of people who own these companies also being invested in commercial real estate so it's self serving and companies just in general wanting to have more control over employees.
