A recent EnhancV survey of 1,000 full-time U.S. workers subject to new or stricter return-to-office policies found that 72 percent suspect these mandates are really a voluntary attrition strategy — a strategy by their own employers to make them quit their jobs.

The damage is strategic, not merely emotional. Baylor University’s reporting on office mandates and brain drain found that firms with mandates faced greater turnover among women, senior employees, managers and high-skilled workers, while job vacancy duration increased and hiring rates declined. In other words, the people with the most options are often the first to leave. The employees who remain may not be the most committed — they may simply be the least mobile.

    Oh, good. Wouldn’t want the actual realities of capitalism to get in the way of late-stage capitalist monopolies refusing to innovate.

        I agree, in the same way I think conservatism naturally evolves into fascism. For the sake of argument, I meant what they always say are the natural ruling forces of capitalism, supply-demand, competition, incentive and all the rest of that malarkey. They bail them out, not letting the natural forces of the free market decide their fate. They’re not doing what they say capitalism is, they’re doing what we’ve seen capitalism to be in reality.

        I don’t know, maybe I’m not making sense, but I promise it makes sense in my mind.
