Commercial rent is absolutely a huge reason. However, you’re missing something. It’s an easy way to get rid of a certain percentage of folks.

So if they need to shrink their workforce by X% it doesn’t matter which employees leave.
Unfortunately for the employers the high performers are generally (not always) the ones with more options.
