Denken Sie zweimal darüber nach, bevor Sie Mitarbeitern, die von zu Hause aus arbeiten, befehlen, ins Büro zurückzukehren | Unternehmen sehen sich mit Gegenreaktionen konfrontiert, nachdem sie ihre Mitarbeiter angewiesen haben, die Arbeit von zu Hause aus einzuschränken. Das ist eine gute Möglichkeit, Talente abzuschrecken

I’ve got interview requests from FAANG companies that weren’t remote. I ignore them.
As much as reddit likes to parrot that RTO orders are layoffs in disguise; if that’s true, it’s stupid.
The employees most likely to leave with an RTO mandate are those who are highly skilled and able to find work elsewhere. Those are typically the employees you don’t want to lose.
I really do believe that these CEOs think everybody working from home is slacking off and this is their attempt to stop it because it’s a lot easier than “making sure people are accountable for their work” which is the other option.
The other factor is that those highly skilled people may be somewhat tethered by stock options that haven’t vested, so that makes it harder for them to leave, but mostly it just means they’re going to lose a lot of those highly skilled people in batches at vest dates.
Honestly, any business that tells you that they have remote work and then they want you to come to the office doesn’t really value your time. You can quit and go get a job that actually does have remote work.
Wasting your money, time and effort every day to go to a job that you can do remotely is not only meaningless. It’s counterintuitive to everything we’re trying to achieve as a species and society.
Fuck these people that are asking you to go back into the office. They deserve to lose everything until they adapt to the changing world.
WFH is here to stay. So many companies are offering this perk. There’s no loyalty anymore, so if they announce returns, start looking elsewhere.
what backlash? They can freely fire people over this, and replace them with cheaper people who are willing to come to work IRL. There is only backlash by fake rich people who, upon being forced to return to the office, realize they are just workers. There are no penalties for companies firing people that refuse to come in, other than the cost of hiring new people which is marginal.
It makes sense to ask for a commute incentive.
If you want me to drive in 3 days a week, I want the company rate for miles on my car and that time is counted as work hours.
