Maybe I'm misinformed but if they are leasing the space doesn't that mean they don't own it?

EDIT: And if they DO own it, it they would probably prefer to pay some rental management company to rent it out as office space for passive income rather than fill it with their own expensive employees.

I think you’re right, and there are multiple reasons executives don’t see office space as a “sunk cost.”

A small part may even be that they value work done in-office more than work done remotely. But just pointing out it’s not the most plausible objection to remote work.
