Has anyone actually been fired for not returning to office, after applying for home office, or is this only a threat?

- rwmj 3y agoPeople don't want to test this out, given that the job market is difficult at the moment. It does hint at the real, unstated reason for all this which is to try to get the headcount down. They are massively overstaffed and losing money on nonsense like the metaverse. I'm wondering if there are Meta employees on remote work contracts. The contract at the company I work for specifies that I work remotely, and no one can change that without offering me some quid pro quo (which of course I would never take).
- Tempest1981 3y agoI assume they'll first be ranked as "lower performers", then maybe fired in 1-2 years, or during the next downsizing. > the continued mandate that team leaders decide that 14.5% to 16.5% of their workers are in the lower performance categories
- somsak2 3y agoif my company asks me to come back, this will be my approach. I'll keep doing what I've been doing remotely and if they want to fire me, fine
