THE STAKES

The benefit you improvised in 2021 is now a risk you own.

Distributed work arrived fast, and most workspace programs were built reactively. Five years on, the workforce has changed and the decisions haven’t. The result is uneven coverage, costs no one can explain, and a fairness gap that surfaces in eNPS, promotion rates, and attrition. In budget season, that is the difference between presenting a case and presenting a problem.

WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY

A planning toolkit, not a report.

The six workspace models

See the six models companies run in 2026, and which ones break when you carry them into 2027. Know exactly where your current setup stands.

The five-question audit

Expose the blind spots Finance and DEI will find first: the unmapped workforce, the invisible spend, and the widening equity gap.

The four fairness failures

The geography, activation, proximity, and seniority gaps that turn a “flexible” benefit into an unequal one — with the data behind each.

The cost case for Finance

Turn opaque workspace spend into a governed, forecastable line item. Usage-based models cut direct spend by up to 40%.

The engagement gap

0% / 21%

83% of organizations believe their benefits lift productivity. Only 21% of employees are engaged. The gap is usually a design problem, not an intent one.
The hidden admin bill

$0+

The annual hidden admin cost of processing just 50 workspace expense reports a month. Opaque spend is expensive spend.
Flex is growing

0%

Of companies plan to increase their use of flexible or coworking space over the next three years. The trend is not slowing.

It's the perfect solution because we are a remote-first company. We have people everywhere, and Croissant is something we can offer to everyone.

WHO IT'S FOR

Written for the People team.

For Heads of People, HR, and People Ops leaders designing the 2027 benefits stack — and for anyone who will defend workspace spend to Finance or stand behind it in a DEI review. If you inherited a workspace program and need to make it defensible, this is your starting point.

Q2 is when the case gets built. Q3 is when budgets close.
