13434824, You’re referring to outsourcing an entire office?

Like, moving your whole office to another state/country?

I think wfh would enable you to just move certain office jobs, which seems “easier”/more flexible, no?

Maybe I’m misunderstanding your meaning.

*edit* Right now, isn’t every company in NYC/LA thinking, what if all low-level employees came from Tennessee or North Carolina, so we could pay those prevailing wages instead of NY/LA wages? With wfh, they might be able to.

Some companies do just move whole offices to those states where possible, but these companies have been able to do that already and presumably have already done so.

I’m talking about other companies that, due to other factors (real estate, locations of key stakeholders or partners) need to maintain physical presences somewhere with high cost of living, but can now outsource more work thanks to wfh.
