Work From Home was a big cultural change for the country, and we all see how that went (even after initially lauding it). I'm not holding my breath on this. Anything that reduces stress on the employees would never get commonplace, because stress is how they keep the workers in check.
Every single company now wants everybody to come back to office, even those who worked remote before Covid. Even zoom, whose very business is keeping people at home is making their employees return to office.
Dunno about every single company, but I'm sure the handful that want it are really happy this is the impression you're getting
You think only a handful of companies went back on WFH?
You think every single company wants it?
I don't have a direct line with every single company in the world, but I do have this thing called a figure of speech. RTO is a pretty big trend right now, you only need to search the news and find out about it. Not sure why you're trying to prove that there is at least one company in the world that doesn't want people to return to office.
Because it's a handful (woa, figure of speech!) dominating the news because they have an agenda. There's still plenty of WFH options out there, and there is also news about companies forcing RTO to bleed top talent.
Not sure why you're riding so hard for RTO.
I don’t know what you mean by ‘riding hard for rto’. Could you explain? My own company made everybody come back to office after selling the old place and setting up a smaller place made for remote work. May be you are not impacted by rto, but it’s a very real issue, and you seem to be oddly dismissive about it.
Not true at all.
