Did some companies really go back to the office100%? We sure did not, going to the office is more of a social thing, maybe for all hands meetings, customer presentations and that kind of stuff.
The company wins because they can have a shiny office in the city that does not need to have workplaces for all employees but maybe 20% of them at a time.
With all the weird stuff that people do at home, productivity is still higher. In times of crunch working from home has saved me more than once. Etc blabla is this really still a discussion nowadays?
How do you work the office only having space for 20% of employees? Makes a lot of sense but would be annoying to hot desk. My office only has us in two days a week but has not cut down on the number of desks at all, giving up the potential savings.
If the company grows they don't need to have desks for every new person, so they won't run out of space as quickly, saving the cost of relocating to a bigger office for further down the road.
You book a desk in an online tool a week in advance or so. Not sure I get the question. Maybe it's 30% I made that number up.
I think you got it and effectively answered it, thanks.
