We’re witnessing an all out war on the working class. My workplace had 4 years of 100% remote work and we changed all of our systems and processes to be optimized for a distributed wfh workforce. We too just got the order that starting October we no longer have telework as a perk. 5 days onsite no exceptions.
We have studies and countless surveys proving how much productivity and employee happiness improved, but that literally doesn’t mean anything because senior managers want butts in seats because corporate real estate will lower in valuation if there aren’t butts in seats.
I quit my last job because they pulled us back to the office. That's going to be a lot harder to do next time becauee of BS like this.
Everyone just has to sit on their hands and strike in-office to drive home the point. Something that'll never happen in unorganized workplaces.
I’m unionized and the union rolled over and let the employer do this. “The employer reserves the right to designate where employees work”
Wonder what I’m paying union dues for.
that's YOUR union, go get involved and fix it!
even unions are gonna eventually fall to corruption and laziness if ppl think they'll solve your problems for you
the union IS you (and your coworkers)
Appreciate the sentiment but it’s me vs thousands haha.
