Flexport is rescinding a bunch of signed offer letters
It seems like many companies have recently become more willing to take actions that I view as extremely trust breaking:<p>- Forcing employees who were hired as remote employees to relocate for RTO<p>- Rescinding offers<p>- Layoffs with seemingly little connection to performance<p>What I'm trying to understand is do companies not think these actions will limit their ability to hire in the future?<p>Are they:<p>- Hoping that future candidates have short memories or they can hire new grads who don't have other options?<p>- Calculating that the job market will stay slack for a long time?<p>- The C-suite has short time horizons and thus see these problems as someone else's future problems?<p>- Something else?<p>Obviously companies will do these sorts of things if faced with existential threats, but the recent trend seems far more widespread than this.
