I head to the office to badge in every day, then I'm on Zoom calls, even with folks in the same office since there's often someone from a different office on the calls I'm on - of course because it helps in-person collaboration.
At the same time we don't have budget for me to regularly meet the team in person, so here we are with RTO making us more productive.
Before RTO I'd head in regularly for meetings or just to catch up, but the 2-3 days at home really meant I could get work done in peace and spend less for transport, food, etc. and get other things done without rushing.
I'm quite sure we'll see companies with a more reasonable approach both get more talent and make them more productive.

- harha 3y agoThere’s other aspects making the job an overall better option at the moment. Policies like this aren’t good for productivity or retention though and I don’t see this being the long-term path for successful companies.
