I am not unconvinced the turning off the WFH was not a stealth layoff.

  It's partially a stealth layoff.

  Nice triple negative. I think there's an element of layoff about it, but comments from ex-Yahoos about lax work culture in remote employees might well mean it's the best thing to do. Especially when your management clearly can't work well with remoters and no longer has a clear direction. Remote work is great if there's good communication both ways. If not, it's throwing money into a bottomless pit.

    Sounds like they should have laid off management then. :)

      If they just need to decrease headcount, they can completely move the conversation to WFH vs NOWFH instead of "why are they laying off people" by canceling it. I'm going to bet MM doesn't necessarily think WFH is bad at all, it was just an easy layoff.
