Stopped by to see how things were going. Kudos on the text tweaks on the website. Seems so minor but it reads way better now. Great job!

Personally, these mandates have been a positive. We’ve been hoovering up incredible talent to join our team since we’re a remote-first org (we have offices and co-working spaces for those that want or need it; some don’t have space in their homes to work or want the in-person socialisation).

The stupidity of these orgs with these mandates - their best and critically important talent are the first to leave. Not to mention how some of the best talent have long left the major urban areas and will never be moving back.

I feel incredibly bad for the juniors though, who will be left picking up the pieces of these terrible management decisions.

I recognise one of those names: Hans Speidel was part of the plot to assassinate Hitler (by detonating a briefcase explosive), and was later arrested by the Gestapo. He also famously didn’t relay Hitler’s orders to bombard Paris with V1 and V2 rockets to his superior.

I can kind of understand why someone like him led NATO forces.

Don’t know about the rest of them though.
