Working from Home, tax and Multinationals

Peanuts20 said:
an only comment from my experience but in my case, I totally disagree. I work for a MNC, most of us (80%) work from home and I am only out of the home office to meet the clients or where we do get together for a couple of days as a team to work through things collectively. I can truthfully say I can't name a single person in my company, my suppliers/partners or clients who works from home and was made redundant as a result.

Good for you
I have a Daughter who work from home for over 15 years when she moved to another European Country to live
Still working for the same Irish based Company from home
On the other hand when I look at your post above I think I am listening to how employees who thought the were just that bit better doing there job in a big Engineering Company and did not see any threat to there jobs when there employer moved employees based in another engineering company to gain experience in Ireland they were shocked when the company closed most of there Irish operation and no longer required there services,

I work in a multi-national IT company that is very much committed to continuing to support hybrid working. It's an organisation that takes performance management seriously and incentivises managers to do their job properly. Talking to peers in the industry it's far from unique,

You cannot Manage what is going on in every shed and home office of the people you manage I am sure there is at least one employee who is almost as smart as the people who manage them,

Is there any danger highly regarded employees may be interested In feathering there own nest may use home working to keep a little of the home work back or share it with someone who should not have sight of the workings of the company projects,
Any idea why working from home is not unique in your Industry,
Just asking,

Any business where all the management are completely out of their depth, or which has an inability to identify and deal with individual managers who are out of their depth will likely fail

Can take a long time for it to show up, The people who started the rot and out of there depth will squander lots of company time and money,
Ineffective leadership poor planning poor communications takes a long time to show up, The people who worked under good management before the rot set in will keep the show on the road for a long time,you are correct it will fail unless new eyes take over before it goes under,
New eyes will spot people struggling to understand they are out of there depths and can only see failings in others when they should be looking out for there own failings,
In the past i worked with a USA employer who bought distressed business, one of the last business he bought about 10 years ago was a small American business which had an Irish operation, when it closed there was lots of paperwork lying about which made interesting reading,
If you knew what to look out for you would find in most cases the rot started years ago when the companies hires a key employee the thought he/she was the best thing since the sliced pan in the Irish operation if you went back at least 20 years you would see it was an Irish manager who started the rot which brought down the whole company,
