My management is under the impression that it will be mandatory that all engineering work be done onsite four days a week and later to become five days.
Those like me who moved farther away from a campus will be given an opportunity to move or be removed.
Remote workers are round peg in a square hole.
@g1+1jv1jbd7p I don’t believe that you don’t believe that OP doesn’t use double negatives when he speaks, and I also don’t believe that you don’t believe that he believes everything.
@cm+... I don't believe that you don't always use double negatives when you speak and you really don't believe everything.
@OP It's inescapable that fully remote engineers will be less desirable than ones that comply with the CEO's mandate of 4 days working in the office.
Your manager obviously values your work and has already hinted that you're on thin ice due to being fully remote. Working in the office for 4 days a week is a basic requirement mandated by the CEO, and those who cannot meet this basic requirement will always be judged unfairly. Your manager may try to defend you because he values your work, but the managers above won't have this visibility. Upper management will cut and will start with those who are unable to comply with these basics. I call it basics because it's not performance-based; one just needs to go into the office and work.
Manager always win with their subversive politics. Always remember that.
I don't believe OP isn't Captain Obvious.
Andy Grove always said "You are in charge of your own employability" when things started looking really bad in Q1 2024 at what point did you ignore signs that your nifty remote job living in another state would be eternal. Every tech company is doing the same thing, the difference at Intel is they aren't making enough revenue to pay everyone and keep creditors at bay.
Managers are a bunch of stupid id--ts playing around with people. Otherwise they become a skillful engineer or a skillful technician at Intel.
If a person is a round peg sitting on thin ice, what are the chances that the hole in the ice would be square?
Fact: Most ice holes are round, but maybe OP is a square ice hole.
I don't believe OP is a square hole.
As fully remote, latest word is you’ll stay that way if you were hired in under that agreement and/or your office was closed by Patty G. I have heard of people who were normal/hybrid who switched to fully remote being switched back to “hybrid” based on distance from office though.
When layoffs come unless you are senior grade or with FE or EE as a remote you are on the list
Once again for the slow people: RTO is not about collaboration or making the workforce more involved, etc.. RTO is solely to create a situation whereby people will either leave on their own (no severance or unemployment) or they will be fired "for cause" (again, no severance or unemployment.)
So far, at least, there is no evidence that remote workers will be affected by the RTO policy.
Well duhrr, genius
Fu-k um. Let them "remove" us.
