One workaround that I have to maximize my steps is to have walking meetings whenever face 2 face camera is not mandatory or when discussing ideas. All hands - walk. Meet with peer - circle the office parking lot. The goal is to maximize steps starting from the first wake minute. That side I still have fatty liver. My doctor said it’s most likely due to genetics.
At the end of the day productivity gains and ROI will determine the best corporate culture (as long as Profits is what continues to be measurement of business success)
I have been thinking that you have data centers that follow the day around the globe and which are powered by solar power this could be a great business model.
All else aside, Microsoft 365 as an office suite screams for disruption. If you don't believe me try actually using their copilot and observe the poor integrations with core products such as Excel/Word/Powerpoint. Sorry for the offtopic but it really hurts for those of us who are forced by their CIO to use this thing.
Unfortunately I think you are wrong. Their most important asset is the leadership role of the company, the brand name and the muscle memory. Other employers may come and go - on a system level this doesn’t look important as longer as they can replace talanted folks with other talanted ones. This seems to be the case for nowhere
Climate change is tailwind for e-bikes. What we need is better infrastructure accross and muscle memory to use them. If only politicians would invest more in infrastructure... (speaking from Southern EU perspective)
When USA and Japan wake up from their gasoline obsession the world would have moved on and Asia, South America and Africa would be on Chinese Evs. Europe will drive EU made cars from Chinese and European brands.
Based on what you said I think that you should change jobs. Too much toxicity and obvious incompatibility with the company preferred approach to working.
I am living the reality described by the article. The PM role has too much power and too little accountability if things go south. The usual scrape goats are sales, then engineering and support.
Let's not forget that the Airbnb CEO has vested interest in expansion of remote work. This means more digital nomads and folks who travel to work from anywhere, which benefits the Airbnb Network.
As a hiring manager that has been in similar situation with employees - do what is best for yourself, but be aware that your current manager won't feel good about this situation and will try to move on as fast as possible as well. If you go to FB try not to leave in the next 2 years, because hiring managers don't like job hoppers these days. Ideally, don't even include your 6 months tenure in your resume.
