Google co-founder Sergey Brin has urged employees to return to the office at least every weekday, citing it as a "sweet spot" for productivity. However, this new directive raises concerns about the company's priorities and its impact on employee well-being.Working such long hours may not be sustainable or healthy for individuals, and it is unclear whether it will genuinely contribute to Google's goals in winning the AGI race. Brin's statement implies that burnout is a necessary cost of progress, but this might not be the most effective or desirable approach.The policy also raises questions about the future of remote work arrangements and job flexibility. With more companies adopting flexible work models, it is essential to consider the potential consequences of such drastic changes on employee satisfaction and overall well-being.
