Jamie Dimon says employees can go work somewhere else if they don't like long commutes into the office, thinks remote work doesn't cut it
Jamie Dimon says employees can go work somewhere else if they don't like long commutes into the office, thinks remote work doesn't cut it
Dimon says he's not opposed to remote work if it works, but "if it doesn't work, I don't mind getting rid of it."
You're viewing a single thread.
Pay people during their commutes, they “clock in” as soon as they get into their cars and “clock out” only when they get home.
That rewards employees for living as far away from the office as possible. Is that a fair thing to do? I seriously don't know.
you're right, let's scrap offices altogether and wfh 100%
Something tells me there might be a middle ground here.
Here's a radical idea: just let each employee decide if and when they work from home or in the office.
I'm not sure why you're talking to me like I'm suggesting some sort of crazy thing when I wasn't even making any suggestions...
I'm not? You said there must be a middle ground between incentivizing a forced RTO vs scrapping offices altogether and I presented one.
Sometimes you just gotta pick someone to reply to the whole conversation going on
Not rewards, incentivises, means the employer has a larger labor pool to pick from, which in capitalism is good.
But isn't making commutes longer a bad thing? Especially for the planet? And this is encouraging it.
It makes commuting/commuters more expensive, so financially it incentivises remote work--which is objectively a better alternative.
I agree remote work is a better alternative. I was just addressing this idea of paying people to commute.
Decent public transportation can offset this easily
At which point they say, "if we're paying you to sit on the train, you can do some work while you're sitting there."
Then hey, I can get some of my 8 hrs done on the train and only have to sit in the office for 6 hours! Sounds like a win-win to me.
Capitalism in general is bad for the planet
