There definitely seems to be a fair bit of group think among executives everywhere, whether it's irrational growth, knee-jerk layoffs or the unanimous ending of remote work. Even the statements they put out justifying these unpopular actions use the same rhetoric. So many executives across the world arriving to the exact same conclusion seems sus. Even if they were copying each other, it should take time for things to propagate through the network. It almost feels there is some greater force, above all these executives, who are actually calling the shots and enforcing policy across the industry.
