My manager informed me that word is they are going to start pushing RTO again. Last time they tried was the end of 2021 and it failed miserably, since everyone just ignored it. I told her it just doesn’t make sense for day to day work when the team is not co-located. We’ll see what they do this time around to get people to actually show up. I’ve now spent an equal amount of time at this job between going in full time (pre Covid) and WFH. I really like WFH and it is one of the major reasons I haven’t seriously job searched recently. I may have to ramp up applying to new jobs if this mandate has any teeth.
Tons of companies have ‘officially’ pushed out RTO, mine included, but here in Bay Area it’s still up to the agreement between direct managers and employees to keep WFH going. So my team still does WFH and other reasonable managers continue to do so for their teams as well. I hope that works out for your case too.
That’s what I’m hoping. My manager has been WFH herself for over 15 years, so I think it shouldn’t be a huge issue. Last time I was very upfront about not wanting to go back in, and it sounded like the worst case would be being reclassified as a remote employee. Hopefully that remains the case.
