Companies will do that just because of tax laws and regulations. If they have one person working in a state where they don't have any other presence it can open a whole can of worms for the accounting people. There could be other issues, wanting people to show up for meetings now and then, for instance. Generally speaking, it's almost always about tax laws.

I agree that’s very likely but as someone who works for a company that has an office in each state I wonder what the reasoning is

I interviewed for a role thought it was in office and found out it was remote but they wanted someone in my city. Now they’ve built an office and want me to go in regularly.

I had the opposite happen, they just wanted someone in market to be able to network.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations.
