They were probably like, “Finally, I can go to a company that doesn’t force me to use a Dell.”

Good luck getting people to waste a ton of gas and time going into the office every day. Even before the pandemic, everyone was already using teams for meetings virtually. I think we had physical meetings a few times a year at most, and even then, some people were virtual.
Your move, Bitch!
What happens if you refuse both options?
That's called "time to get a new job."
Before I came in here, I assumed that's what "or else" meant, and I'm still not sure it doesn't mean that.

There's a pretty good chance that every employee facing this offer is in a position where Dell sees them as replaceable. They want people who follow orders and not much more, so if you want to look at it through that filter Dell got what they wanted.
Unless somebody over there at the top is crazy, Dell would have had individual deals with the true innovators, decision makers, movers and shakers internally who are viewed as top tier and irreplaceable.
