How many of you have had a mandatory return to office (RTO) ? (self.jobs)

Recently found myself in a position where I'm facing a 2-3 day RTO. Definitely wary of a situation where they're forcing us back to 5 days.

Feels like it's becoming more and more common for companies to force a return to office. I've seen everything from an initial 2-3 day hybrid situation to 5 days a week, even for those who've been remote for so long. Would love to hear about others' experience.

I'm in the same boat, 2-3 days RTO when previously my employer was so ✨hybrid/remote friendly ✨ (and now they're even threatening the status of those workers who are currently remote)

I'm becoming so disenchanted with employers. Taking attendance doesn't make me feel like a competent adult they trust to do my job :(

Ugh, yeah I really don't understand the shift back. The only thing I can attribute it to is management feeling they need to keep an eye on "productivity" or otherwise justify their expensive buildings.

When will they learn they can just save the money on real estate to just throw events or, gasp, pay everyone which would make people way happier?
