Why it worked

The video taps into a widespread sentiment among workers about the push for return-to-office mandates, offering a seemingly insider perspective from a recruiter that validates common frustrations and speculations.

WORK DIDN'T NEED TO COMPLETELY DOMINATE THEIR LIVES. SO THEY HAD MORE TIME FOR FAMILY, FOR HOBBIES, FOR TRAVEL. TIME TO SPEND ON THINGS THAT THEY ACTUALLY CARED ABOUT. BUT WHEN CEOS ARE PAYING YOU SIX FIGURES OR MORE, YOU TO FOCUS ON ANYTHING ELSE BUT WORK. BUT WORK. AND THEY REALISE LOT HARDER TO CONTROL PEOPLE WHEN THEY'RE WORKING REMOTELY AND AT HOME. SO THEY DECIDED TO START FORCING THE OFFICE. NOW, IT TOOK FOR THIS TO BECAUSE INITIALLY DURING THE REMOTE WORK BOOM, THE GREAT RESIGNATION, REALLY FINDING IT HARD TO FIND PEOPLE CANDIDATES WERE JUST LOOKING FOR REMOTE WORK.
