The headline seems incorrect: it&#x27;s a return-to-office rule, not a return-to-work rule. The employees were already working.

&gt; 2 days a week<p>If you would be forced to relocate to meet this mandate, I completely understand resigning, and I would likely do the same.<p>But I feel a bit out of place among my peers because assuming I lived within reasonable commuting distance from the office ... I personally wouldn&#x27;t mind this. Not the commuting&#x2F;scheduling inconvenience it would mean for me or others, but working in person a couple days a week, for me, makes my personal experience of work more enjoyable overall. I prefer that it be voluntary&#x2F;opt-in though, obviously.<p>Hopefully the equilibrium we&#x27;ll eventually reach is some set of companies for those that prefer full remote, and another set for those that prefer hybrid. The real pain is caused by companies switching modalities with mandates.

Two things that stand out for me:<p>* the CEO finds silver margins in reduced costs<p>* paying salaries is second to paying rent to platforms

I&#x27;m surprised they managed to keep half their staff.

How do news outlets actually find out when things like this happen? Are they tipped off by an disgruntled (ex) employee?

&quot;So that’ll obviously impact margin in a positive way in the near term&quot;<p>At least they were transparent?

People will vote with their feet. These aren’t wage slaves on poverty wages, these are tech professionals that can - if they are good - get another job within a few short months if not weeks. Grindr is hollowing itself out in terms of talent and it’s best employees, leaving only the sub-par and desperate.
