📘Case Interview:
Market Entry Tech Company
About this case:
This case is inspired by the very real problems companies faced in 2022-24 as they debated appropriate return-to-office policies following the move to remote work during the pandemic.
The candidate will be asked to calculate costs and benefits of returning to work, as well as exploring risks. While there is no objectively correct answer, a strong candidate should help identify that the costs are large and “easy” to quantify, while the benefits are a bit fuzzier to calculate.
As an interesting wrinkle for advanced candidates is how they think about managing a client who has a personal belief and goal that is not obviously the “right” answer for the company.
Enjoy!
