If they want to fire me because I cannot make it in for some uncontrollable reason go ahead.
The roads and mbta are horrendous each alternating a nightmare scenario.
They’ll need to give HUGE raises and comp more because people are spending a fortune now and it’s just begun!
Is anyone hearing anyone still complaining or is everyone just grumbling to themselves?
No recent survey since earlier on it either.
You think they’re mulling it over still or staying hardline? I hope they’re going to loosen this and allow even one day a week wfh but I’m afraid I’m still wasting sugar coated glasses.

Lol no they won't. They just won't. This is not a firm interested in hiring the best of the best. This is a firm interested in hiring the cheapest of the cheapest (see also: all the visa abuse). I agree this is all bull but no they are not going to balance the de facto pay cut that is an RTO with more money
I’ve heard a few people say they are annoyed about coming in but feel like they have complained too much and don’t want to lose their jobs, so they are pretending to be ok with it.
Grocery prices also are impacted by gas prices. So there’s also thag
Its not going to get better and they are Clearly targeting where they are looking to reduce headcount, since certain roles that were set to go back full time are now moved to the 1 week on/3 weeks off model rotating with phones -because of “space”. Because they just figured it out there wasn’t enough space? and these groups/roles just happen to be the exact number of overage? it’s all a big game.
So basically we’re just fancy indentured servants.
Good to know 😖
aka: Smoke and mirrors disguised as being "accommodating to employees" when really its a means to an end, designed with the goal of making it so inconvenient and annoying to deal with, that you quit.
Humans "bad".
AI & subhumans "good".
They are not interested in prioritizing quality workers...they want quality out.
they're not mullint it over, they are staying hardline. The sales pitch you will hear is all the work they're putting into making the associate experience better. Everything from how beautiful the new CP building is to other benefits they're offereing (ex commuter, parking and backup childcare). They have decided this is how it's going to be and they will not change their mind. Any negative feedback will be funneled into doubling down on associate experience as opposed to re-evaluating RTO. The spin and patting themselves on the back has already started,, i'm surprised you haven't been hearing it.
