What's interesting is that if you stay in their Menlo Park office, you cost FB your salary + office sq/ft + office maintenance/security/cleaning/etc. But if you chose to work remotely you cost FB your salary - colo adjustment.

The incentive is clearly to stay and cost FB more money per head.

The hiring/retaining employee incentive for FB is opposite.
