1 edit | Greed! They are pushing this telecommuting simply because they want to charge users the $150/month business connection and a new $6/month telecommuting fee.

By users do you mean the companies or the employees? If the former than the cost to the company of $156/month per telecommuter should be a business expense which gets offset by the reduced (or eliminated) office rental/etc. expenses. Thus it is a win/win for both.
If it is the employee who has to pay, the equation is less clear cut although I'd think that a significant part (if not all of it) of that $156 would be offset by the reduced gasoline cost as well as the Monthly Parking Lot fees (if the company does not have a free parking lot).
Just because the Telco is pushing this to make money, does not mean that it is a bad idea if the user is saving money due to their reduced or eliminated expenses. |
