Ask HN: Has your company’s office reopened?

[implfuture]

It looks like SF is now allowing 25% capacity of non-essential offices (https://sfmayor.org/article/san-francisco-continues-reopening-expanded-business-operations-and-activities). Has your company decided to allow some people to come back?

[dataminded]

No. Covid and the job market make that impossible. I know that if we reopened, I'd lose half my team within the month.

How would allowing people to optionally come back cause a mass exodus? Do you think they would feel pressured and instead decide to leave?

In my corner of the tech industry there's not been an expectation anyone will return until next year. I think this will be extended until early summer. Though the worldview on covid could change somewhat dramatically after next week.
