- Slackers are a pretty big % of corpo workforce. They are not as useless in the office.
- You cannot pressure hard-workers to do even more and more on remote.
So the balance is broken. Slackers do fkall and hardworkers do only whats needed.
If you fire slackers -> hiring process costs a lot and you have no guarantee you get a hardworker. So for employer its a lose-lose situation.
