American billionaire John Morgan has sparked a debate around work ethics and employee rights after revealing that 23 of his staffers quit when he began tracking their productivity through laptop cameras.
“The first week, 23 people quit. We won’t look at you. Because they want less supervision and accountability, morgan, a politician and attorney from Florida, argued that people want remote work.
“You can work from home. But guess what? We’re going to put a camera on your computer. We’re going to put a camera up your ***. Oh my gosh. It’s not that they don’t want to work from home.
He said that the company put cameras on their work-from-home laptops. It’ll be a pixel,” he said. They don’t want to work,” he said.
The billionaire attorney made a series of controversial remarks on The Iced Coffee Hour podcast, claiming that most people today shirk away from hard work.
He interpreted that as evidence that those employees did not merely want the flexibility of working from home — they did not want the level of work or accountability expected of them. John Morgan’s remarks on employees’ work ethics sparked a debate online, with many people saying that tracking employees through cameras amounted to an invasion of privacy.
