Sigh, why are you punishing people based on where they live?
That's a great way to ruin moral. Create 2 classes of workers.
Divide et impera? it's not always about morale.
I've had a department head who thrived on low morale. People mostly unhappy, yet the she always got what she wanted, be it overtime or information on the state of things 'under the table'. Also very good at misdirection, since she always had a mad dog under her command that people could freely hate. If you were good at what you did, you got it a bit better than the 'plebs' but it was a very high stress work environment that took quite a toll on my mental health. Getting a raise was the best thing ever.
Being privy to how the 'plebs' were considered and participating in meetings where you'd basically reallocate people to projects like pieces of meat was a very interesting experience. Cultivation of individuality and 'fuck you, got mine' attitude.
It's an... interesting... management style. Not for the faint-hearted but for sure a good experience to have at least as a baseline.
