At my company, the minimum is 3 days a week in the office, but the "expectation" is 4 days, and "leaders" are expected to be there 5 days a week. No idea what any of that means. I'm fully remote, so I guess I'm not the leader of the team I manage?
Meanwhile, the only remote people I saw get a "promotion" in the last cycle either got a title bump without a level bump, or were the only person on the ground in the country where they work. The only level jumps I've seen in remote positions is when a remote person leaves and a new office-based person comes in to fill their place, the new person is hired at the level the remote person should have been promoted to.
It's a shitty time to work in the corporate world.
