By 2025, that number is expected to grow by 87 percent. According to Aquent CEO John H. Chuang, &ldquo;trying to get workers back into the office is like trying to unring a bell.&rdquo; He said people are saving time by not commuting and they have a better work-life balance. Companies realize they&rsquo;re &ldquo;wasting a ton of money if they have office space that sits unused.&rdquo; Chuang also argued that companies have far more access to great talent when they&rsquo;re not tied to local markets only, and &ldquo;talent really calls the shots nowadays.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aquent CEO joins
