wait, what?
In bigger companies teams are autonomous, they arent asking CEO if they can use Java or if they can work remotely.
- scarface_74 2y agoI have worked for the second largest employer in the US until late 2023. RTO five days a week was a top down mandate and managers had no say so. I was there during the first mandate. But I had a “field by design” role that was exempted. Those roles lost that exemption this year according to some of my old coworkers.
- lesuorac 2y agoAutonomous to a certain degree. When a mandate comes down from above you have the autonomy to figure out how to comply; which depending on the mandate may leave little wiggle room. So, if a CEO mandates everybody get off the Oracle JVM then you have some discretion on moving to OpenJDK or say re-writing things in C#. Also, managers often have a lot of discretion is reporting problems. If somebody you supervise doesn't ever show up in the office but is still getting their work done then you have little reason to inform HR. However, if HR is monitoring badge data on their own then your discretion is irrelevant.
