They are punishing everyone for some bad apples instead of dealing with the bad apples

Get real. If you are at home, you aren't working. You are golfing or doing tennis or something else.

“Many of us have elderly we are either caring for or need to be around for. Work from home is the only thing that has kept my mother out of a home,”

You have caused 5x8 to become the set rule for everyone. There is no way you were focused on work if caring for dependents on company time.

Many of us have elderly we are either caring for or need to be around for. Work from home is the only thing that has kept my mother out of a home, and I am twice as productive being able to concentrate without distraction vs. trying to focus in a call center.

It’s called a job dum--ss. Go get laid off and see how it feels trying to get a new job battling it out with thousands for an open slot that may or may not exist.

Come to work , do your job and shut your mouth. If you little whining whimps worked for me every day after work you would have to stop by urgent care to have my boot removed from your rear ends you people make me sick.

The young, the well-educated, and the high performers (those nowhere near retirement) are not going to be sticking around. Why would anyone want to work for a company that is just a commodity? ATT Labs at one time was an innovator and, thus, could offer some exciting opportunities. ATT is nothing like that anymore. No innovation. No real, true vision. Boring, stodgy, and lifeless just like the "leaders" that run it. There is nothing at ATT for anyone unless they want a drone-like mediocre job.

“The young, the well-educated, and the high performers will all leave.”

And yet the number of employees leaving voluntarily remains so low.

plus they are violating FSLA labor laws by tracking and publishing office hours for exempt employees, but giving no credit for anything offsite. Annual Salary vs. Hourly wage are separate classes.

The only people who actually want to return to the office are the people who work is all they have in life and they HAVE to be in an office to feel fulfilled. It’s their social time and that’s why they love it.

As someone who's been through this, let me tell you how it goes. The young, the well-educated, and the high performers will all leave. They have options. The barnacles, the layabouts, the noxious do-nothings will hang on for dear life. The result? An entire company staffed with indolent, cognitively inert, technologically illiterate pre-retirees. If you think AT&T is bad now -- just wait.
