Thread regarding IBM layoffs

Not Driving to Work Is the Hot New High-End Job Perk

"Despite the occasional high-profile crackdown on working from home (at International Business Machines Corp. earlier this year, for example), this trend seems to be accelerating. And the lines on the above chart reflect only people who worked from home most of the previous week -- Gallup's most recent survey on telecommuting, in 2015, found that 37 percent of U.S. workers said they had worked from home using a computer to communicate with the office at some point, 3 up from 30 percent in 2008 and 9 percent in 1995. A different 2016 Gallup survey found that 43 percent work remotely at least some of the time, and 75 percent do so more than one-fifth of the time."

And Ginni wonders why talent is willfully departing in droves.

We all know what IBM's reasons are to ask employees back into office... Most of these employees have to relocate and they won't, so either they leave IBM and get laid off.
