schmendeler said:in my hypothetical the money spent on increasing capacity of infrastructure could potentially be redirected. also, I don't envision the incentives being permanent. I think most companies would see the benefit of employees that are a little more willing to sign on a few minutes early or a few minutes later when they don't have an hour or so commute home in front of them.gindaloon said:
Where does the money come from to incentivize these companies? More taxes?
Yep. If anything good came from Harvey, it's my company's stance on WFH. They allowed many of us to do it while the waters were receding and the storm passed, and they actually saw productivity increase. So much so that they rolled it out the next quarter.
