You are going to love NJ. Best place to live in the entire USA.
My relo package was fantastic!
I resigned and work for another software firm 100 percent remotely.
Left Atlanta moved a few miles from my aging parents and can check in on them often.
Very happy to have left fiserv in the rear view mirror.
There were a few other locations that you could maybe get an exception for, I don't think those were on the list. I know Pittsburgh was and Texas.
Only NJ was offered. Would have considered Alpharetta. Coral Springs housing is out of reach. Nice try though, thinking we had a choice in the matter.
The probkem is that thousands of people worked productively from home full or part time until FB toik over.
Speaking for myself, ivwoukd have respected this RTO or GTFO if it would have been handled via natural attrition and organic job growth.
In the case of Apple, your example falls flat with me because they worked on campus until COVID.
I know that facts are stubborn things for some people.
- Employer requires employees to function.
- Employer can't hire new employees.
They always seem to forget some of the line items.
Remove your emotions and it's simple.
Employer requires an on-premise presence.
Employee has the right to stay or leave.
Pretty straight forward.
Read the Apple article on Monday? Requiring everyone back in Silicon Valley HQ 3 days a week beginning on Sept 2.
Fiserv famous for closing offices when a majority of the people can work from home. First Data comes in, no more work from home. Entire products and businesses slowly die. Just wait...
Imagine a company in which—get this—management _doesn't_ force employees who can perform all of their job duties remotely to relocate to a far-away location when their local office gets shut down, just to sit in MS Teams calls all day with their co-workers from other locations. Picture this sane alternate reality, if you can, OP.
