Thread regarding Occidental Petroleum Corp. layoffs

Office work and job security

Personally, coming to the office does not give me any illusion that my job is safer than not coming to the office.
Why do some think that coming to the office makes their job more secure from offshoring?

Makes no difference but if it makes you feel better that you can stay alive with your nose in a certain position go for it. By now you should know if you are a chosen one or not. If just part of the general population of worker bee its all about the price on your head. If i can offshore it will be done since cheaper and being seen is not going to keep you from getting voted off the island

This is a very cleverly worded post from OP. OP wants to work from home and the off shoring issue is a straw man argument. It goes like this; working from the office is no better than working from home, so let me work from home. One would think that at this point in time, people would realize that companies are going to do whatever they choose to do and no arguments for and against are going to make any difference. It’s time to stop swinging your fist in the wind and just except what ever happens.

I imagine the increased number of days to be in the office is going to lead to more turnover.

Out of sight...out of mind. Seen it over and over in my career. You still work for a generation that doesn't fully embrace the wfh mantra. You have a better chance of survival being in your office, attending meetings, interacting with your peers and adding value (doesn't matter where you are if you do not find grease). I was on the international circuit most of my 40 year career and the staff that stayed home (ie, seen by management and supervisors day to day) fared better than us in the satellite countries.
