I don’t think working overtime has much to do with WFH vs office for most people. We have a lot more WFH here since covid, and the only people I know that work a lot of overtime already did that before WFH was introduced.
For me, WFH means an hour more of free time, as I don’t have to spend it in traffic on my way from and to work.
I dunno man, they’re really happy with the work life balance and the C-suites are happy with their productivity.
It’s funny even our sales and logistics departments are wfh, and the only people I ever see on the off chance I need to load a tape rack or something is security and building maintenance.
And we’ve been RIDICULOUSLY profitable all through covid. In fact covid only served to show the remaining staff how productive WFH is.
We are making so much money rn that they don’t even CARE about property costs and they leave the lights and AC on 24/7 for maybe 2 people in the entire site, and our 3 satellite sites are just as empty.
Sure there may be some A type salesbro personalities that need to be around others to work effectively, the largely spectrum oriented development community needs no such frippery.
At what cost to themselves?
Willing to bet they work a minimum of 150% of the hours they’re paid for

To be honest, WFH for me means that if they need me to fill an hour in extra or so per day, then that’s kind of already costed in with travel times.
I’ve pulled 14 hour shifts covering for PTO or sick days and it really doesn’t feel even half as exhausting as a normal in-office 8 hours.
