    The lease is already paid, or the money is planned to be paid. You can’t recover this money anyway. But you can still save on energy and cleaning.

    Getting out of the lease is as easy as not renewing it.

      Yes, it is that easy. Commercial leases are often in the 10-20 year range, however.

        I’m skeptical a company would take that. They want to be able to shut down contracts with employee on a whim but somehow they would engage for a 20 years in a building? If it’s not a big industry I severely doubt it, and those are rarely I city centers for obvious reasons.

          You’re right logically.

          I suspect the difference we see in reality is due to graft, bribery, money laundering and outright fraud that went into those contract negotiations.
