A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

In addition to pumping real estate valuation, it seems like moves like this are a form of cutting workers without having to do layoffs. They know a large number of workers are wont be able to readjust, and will have to quit.
My guess is if some companies are willing to have some full time remote positions, they are going to hire from LCOL areas with poor workers rights.
