Totally agree, as I wrote in an earlier post, I don't like that. It's what small, struggling companies do, not what large, multi-national corporations do.

Allowing good employees to work from home at the same pay is a win-win. The company cuts overhead cost and most likely has a more engaged workforce. The employee gets flexibility and convenience and can still pay their bills.

Sadly, if the pay cut news is true, I would expect most of the employees that can't/won't move to another center will quit. Often, those tend to be your experienced employees vs. newer, younger employees that are often more mobile (not tied down by family, spouse's job, children's school, etc.).
