I agree. Those looking to force everyone back into the office want to prove their worth in front of everyone else.

I hate the idea of how some companies try and position the company as your second family. “No I’m here to do what I do to find my life outside of here.”

I know a number of execs at various tech companies and honestly this talk does not reflect my reality or experiences whatsoever.

Execs generally optimize for impact and success, and while their paths may not always be correct, I don' really know a single one who primarily wants to prove their worth in front of everyone else.

What they tell people and what they are actually optimising for may be two completely different things.

Like, almost all of us are mostly unaware of why we do things, why would executives be any different?
