Question:

Assume that you are employed at Yahoo as a marketing analyst and you have just been told that you no longer are allowed to telecommute from your home office. Instead, you will now be expected to do all of your work at the headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, in Silicon Valley.

The traffic is very heavy during your commute from your home in San Jose to the office in Sunnyvale, and you dislike making the 40-minute commute each way to the office.

You enjoyed working at your home office two or three days per week, and now that privilege has been taken away by the new HR policy at Yahoo restricting telecommuting.

Which of the following three tactics would you most likely choose if you found yourself in the situation described in this exercise? Would you

(a) remain as an employee at Yahoo and voice your feelings to management;

(b) remain as an employee at Yahoo and keep silent; or

(c) start a job search to find employment at a company that is more supportive of telecommuters?

Explain the reasons for your choice of tactics and be prepared to share with other students the thinking behind your decision.
