My employer is requiring mandatory RTO Tuesday thru Thursday for all employees within 30 miles of an office stating in June. It does not matter if your manager or most members on your team are remote. It does not matter if you are productive remotely. We have many employees distributed in many states and even countries. During COVID the number of remote employees exploded. I’m really curious how this goes down and who shows up in June.
- ptmcc 3y agoMy company is instituting a similar policy in July. Half my team, including my manager, do not live in a city with an office. Real curious how this will play out. I don't mind an occasional on-site day when there is a purpose, but LMFAO if you expect me to commute in on days where I will mostly be dialing in to calls or doing solo work, reaping zero benefit of face-to-face time. Seems like they are setting up for a reckoning of some kind.
- cebert 3y agoI think there’s a least a number of folks with a similar mindset, but time will tell if they push back or just accept the change. The economy has softened too, so there aren’t as many options as there were in the past.
- ptmcc 3y agoNo doubt, but as always the best engineers and technical leaders will be the ones with the most alternative options. Calling their bluff is a bold move.
- knallfrosch 3y agoThis incentivizes a mailing address that's more than 30 miles away from any office.
- eric-hu 3y agoSounds like a change of address to somewhere just outside 30 miles is in order.
