Talk is cheap
> Three-quarters of remote workers based in the UK's capital city would demand an inflation-busting pay increase – or quit altogether – if asked to give up their right to flexible working.
A least they say they would. But experience tells us that most of them wouldn't.
One place I was working (as "hired help" not as a permie) continually held meetings to discuss the lack of morale in their workplace. The hot topic was always the questionnaires their HR dept kept putting out and the results that said over 50% of their IT staff were thinking of leaving. However, hardly any of them ever did.
It turned out this was just grumbling, blowing off steam and that the only people who did leave (hence the need for bringing in outsiders) were the few talented individuals with initiative who easily found jobs elsewhere.
