It was called Workplace 2020. This seems like another canned or bot post to increase engagement on the site

Workplace 2020 had me in the office for five days a week. RTO only has me in the office for three days a week. For me RTO is better. Pre-WP2020 I was full time telecommuter.

Workplace 2020 had me in the office 5 days a week. RTO only has me in for three days. So RTO has been better for me.

Pre-WP2020, I was full time telecommuter

What is this even supposed to mean exactly? Are you asking if we would prefer the pre-Covid office?

Yes, of course. We had couches and mobile pedestals. Penny-pinching motherfu-kers took away our mobile pedestals (probably sold them off for pennies on the dollar). Now we have to come to work with fu--ing carry-on luggage because there's no place to store our things.

Workplace 2020 and RTO isn't the same office space: they sold real estate off in 2020 and when RTO came around they didn't add space, they just crammed people into more crowded space. It's ridiculous to even state we have 'offices': it's more like a space at a table wherein you have to bring your office equipment in every day with you to sit less than 2 feet away from people on 3 sides of you to hear them on Team meetings all day. Add to that: always a shuffle from day-to-day so don't know where anyone is. And God forbid you come in at 9:05am on a Wed: your sitting in the break room. Workplace 2020 we came in 1-2 days a week and had more room. RTO is beyond ridiculous! If C-suite had to participate in the same rules and environment as the rest of us 'management' -- they'd QUICKLY be adding real estate and changing the rules!!!!!!!!

Reminds me of that “collaboration space” hogwash.

Workplace 2020 was a comprehensive initiative to once again sc--w over the employee base.
Under the guise of modernizing the workplace AT&T would also modernize the workforce. There was a mass effort to skill up employees with internal training and micro certifications.The employees ate it up hook, lime and sinker.

2020 came and much like today, mass layoffs ensued. Similar to today’s RTO, employees were let go if they were outside of a designated collaboration zone. But as usual, there was an even dirtier filthy scheme at play.

As it turns out, all the hoopla for employees to re-skill wasn’t for the employees benefit at all. Many of the employees were re-skilled and then rebadged to IBM and Tech-M. (How benevolent of these companies to allow AT&T to offload employees to them).

The question should really be - do you want RTO vs the year 2000.

Year 2000 we worked in the office, but had unlimited access to the P-Card and a whole ton of crazy things that didn’t exist.

Workplace 2020 was the "redesigned" office design of open workspaces, rather than cubes. RTO is just forcing us to work in the Workplace 2020 offices, so this question really doesn't make sense.

They put me in the same office. So doesn’t matter to me.
