Shouldn't businesses abide by contracts, even verbal ones? If you were hired in office, went remote and then RTO now I understand your viewpoint. But if the company hired you for a remote role that's part of the contract, and RTO is breach of contract.
- Onavo 2y agoYes, promissory estoppel is a thing.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> if the company hired you for a remote role that's part of the contract, and RTO is breach of contract Sure, and the contract should be terminated. Within the context of this article, learning you may be funding sanctioned activities is a valid reason to revisit your business assumptions.
- carlmr 2y ago>Sure, and the contract should be terminated. So in your view all contracts should be meaningless if one party doesn't want it anymore? Do we even need contracts then?
