re: If your company makes working from home permanent, would you move somewhere else?

We are work from home at my job until March and there is a war right now between HR and high level employees over this.
HR says no, you have to stay where your location is based. I.E. if your office is in Denver you have to stay in Denver. But higher ups in the company like VPs are saying frick that, if we are remote we should be able to work where we want. My VP is defying HR and living at his lakehouse in Indiana right now.
What drives people crazy is HR is saying you have to stay put, but people don't know what that encompasses. Is there a certain radius you have to stay within? HR won't clarify.
It's not actually being enforced, and something tells me HR is just doing it to scare people so there aren't hordes of people moving which could create a mess once we get back to work. I have employees of my own who are living at home hours away from our home site.

There are some tech companies threatening to reduce compensation in Silicon Valley if you move somewhere else because their pay is based on the cost of living in the surrounding Bay Area. If employees move to a place with lower CoL, they have to inform HR and "severe consequences will be had" if you're not honest about your location.

I’d guess that has something to do with state income taxes, no?

HR ppl are basically useless.
Why they ever have clout is beyond me.

Is there a more worthless organization in any organization than HR?

Man, this is going to get ugly.
If you can do your job from home, it can be done from Bangalore.
Trust me, I was in the IT field during the outsourcing bonanza. Many good programmers thought they were irreplaceable, but they were dead wrong.
I changed fields to a job where I’m essential to be in everyday. I enjoy the security.
