Iconic HQ Building Available in Crappy Area

Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz used an interview with Bloomberg to let it be known that as an enthusiast of home working , he plans to repurpose the historic Juneau Avenue headquarters on Milwaukee ' s west side . The building was started in 1910 and originally constructed as a factory , but it has been expanded at least three times and has been Harley ' s corporate offices for decades . The building is around 500,000 sq ft , but Zeitz doesn ' t yet appear to have any specific plans for it . If home working is an employee ' s preference , Zeitz said that the company won ' t force workers to return to their office nor to the Milwaukee HQ . Located north of Molson Coors '
Milwaukee office and brewery , the Milwaukee BizJournal has stated that the city could " encounter a de-emphasis of a major landmark and economic force in a city of a Milwaukee neighborhood facing economic and social challenges ." Namely , it ' s in a crappy part of town ! Harley closed its headquarters during the Covid-19 pandemic , and it hasn ' t yet fully reopened it . In the Bloomberg interview , Zeitz said that he had concluded that remote work is no less productive than office work , rather than forcing employees to return to a fixed workplace environment which risks them being " very disengaged ." Zeitz also highlighted the difficulties that a return to office entails for many , including for Zeitz himself
- he is a father of two and splits his time between his home in Milwaukee and a ranch outside of Santa Fe , New Mexico . Such a policy is an important part of the employment offer for its LiveWire brand , with Zeitz saying he has already recruited engineers from EV companies like Rivian and Tesla - with a work from home policy that not even those tech / auto companies can match . LiveWire ' s research and development facilities are in Silicon Valley , while its engineering and product development is in Milwaukee , with assembly in York , Pennsylvania . Zeitz admits that working in person with others is still valuable , but as Bloomberg reports , Zeitz says face-to-face
exchanges must have a clear purpose , and an agenda that goes beyond a meeting behind a computer screen . Otherwise , what ' s the point ? In fact , regardless of the needs of the area in which it is located , it would appear that H-D will retain the Juneau Avenue premises , rather than sell it for redevelopment , intending for it to remain an important location for Harley ' s presence in the U . S . one way or another .
