Grindr loses nearly half its staff to strict return-to-work rule::Grindr has lost about 45% of its staff as it enforces a strict return-to-office policy that was introduced after a majority of employees announced a plan to unionize.

These return-to-office pushes are moronic. We've had three years of remote work without any loss of productivity. Tell us the real reason for the push to be in the office or get the fuck out of my face.

I'm my limited experience, I've noticed a difference between companies that have invested in real estate and those that haven't. Companies who own their buildings are very strict about pushing for their expensive buildings to not sit empty. Companies who lease office space, and especially of they have flexible terms, seem to be more chill about it. Just a general observation.

Except for government, they renew their lease lol.

Yeah. Our boss saw a huge savings stream from lack of the office, so WFH for life for everyone.
